Seven years ago, the Philadelphia Visitors and Convention
Center commented on establishing their .travel domain. “We wanted a web site
domain name that would set us apart as a great resource for conventions and
visitors. We thought using .travel would have an ‘official travel organization’
feel to it that you don’t get from a .com or .org,” said Danielle Cohn, Vice
President of Marketing and Communications for PhiladelphiaUSA.travel on why
they decided go with a .travel domain.
The Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau, known on
the web as PhiladelphiaUSA.travel, is a private, nonprofit membership
corporation and is the official tourism promotion agency for the city of
Philadelphia globally and the primary sales and marketing agency for the Pennsylvania
Convention Center. Cohn explained that the mission of the Philadelphia
Convention & Visitors Bureau (PHLCVB) is to generate economic impact and
job growth by increasing the region’s hotel occupancy and revenues, while
concurrently affecting other diverse segments of the hospitality industry. The
bureau will do whatever it takes to attract ethnically diverse regional,
national, and international convention and tourism customers through creative
sales, marketing, and communications efforts.
The Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau is the
official tourism promotion agency for the city of Philadelphia globally and the
primary sales and marketing agency for the Pennsylvania Convention Center. It
is an economic engine for the city, creating jobs and fueling the economy by
bringing meetings, conventions, and travelers to Philadelphia. The PHLCVB
advocates for Philadelphia and the region’s continuous transformation of
infrastructure, growth of human capital, and brand asset management. It serves
as a connector for meeting planners, conference attendees, tour operators,
travelers, and its members by orchestrating a symphony of resources to create
great expectations.
The PHLCVB offers services in the areas of convention sales
and services; marketing and communications; membership; tourism; finance and
administration; multicultural affairs; sports events; and the raising the
visibility of the tri-state region (Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware) as a
world-class destination for life-sciences meetings, conventions, and business.
The Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau loves its city and is
passionate about its clients and visitors, seeing itself as an ambassador for
the city.
