Recognition for innovation, leadership, storytelling and work that helps move the global travel industry forward.

Recognition with meaning
Nia Global Strategies and Lorraine Simpson have received multiple international honours across tourism innovation, leadership, travel storytelling and specialist FAM-trip development.
The recognition spans established travel-industry awards and wider international leadership programmes. Together, these honours reflect the breadth of the work: creating original tourism ideas, communicating destinations in memorable ways, developing educational experiences and challenging conventional approaches to how travel is marketed and sold.
Most importantly, each award represents work designed to create a real response—from the advisor who feels better equipped to sell, to the destination whose story reaches an audience in a new way.
