What We Do
The work of Discover New England is focused in the following three areas:
- Raising international consumer, travel trade, and media awareness of New England as a memorable, high-quality, four-season destination;
- Educating the New England hospitality business on how to work with and generate new business from the international market;
- Expanding the New England product offered by international tour operators and U.S. receptives and helping them set up itineraries, market the region, and contract accommodations.
DNE retains travel marketing organizations based in key overseas countries who represent New England to tour operators, travel trade media, consumer media, and consumers themselves. We work closely with these international organizations and our member states on a regular basis to promote the New England region.
