We’re looking forward to welcoming a critical industry segment to SLO CAL this fall.”

Chuck Davison, president and CEO of Visit SLO CAL, said: “Luxury travel remains an important market for SLO CAL. Hosting the California Luxury Forum allows us to showcase our destination and connect with key regional markets across the globe.
