Women in Travel Summit Europe: Riga, Latvia: Grid

Sessions, tours, mentor meetings, FAM trips, parties, and more. It’s all here!

Once you register for WITS, you’ll be sent a login from Sched, which you can use to create and manage your own personal schedule. Nothing you add to your personal Sched is binding, and adding something to your Sched does not automatically register you for it. If a session/activity requires pre-registration, it will be noted in its description.

Sessions and events subject to change.
