Networking

‘The Male Allyship Network was universally agreed as a superb concept to engage, embrace and enrich the talent of women no matter their background, diversity, disability, orientation or ethnicity. ‘Lifting up’ individuals through the process of allyship; encouraging individuals to follow their path, forge successful careers, to strive and obtain leadership (senior to board level) roles within travel is what this project is all about.” - Hugh King Director of Business Development, UK & Europe, Battleface Women in Travel’s Male Allyship Network was launched at the International Women in Travel & Tourism Forum digital held in May 2021. The new cross-industry Male Allyship Network in travel and tourism aims to foster mentoring and the sponsorship of women, particularly those from underrepresented groups. It was backed by 30 industry leaders and its members are some of the highest profile male professionals in travel and tourism.
