Radio Free 501c: DMOs and Placemaking with Rob Hunden and Jay Burress August 18, 2025
Description
Episode 295: This episode supported by USAE News! DMOs (Destination Marketing Organizations) are the current evolution of Convention & Visitors Bureaus. These groups are contributing strongly to the concept of Placemaking and creating vibrant destinations where people can connect. If you are not quite sure what these terms mean -- I didn't either until I spoke with my guests Rob Hunden, President & CEO, and Jay Burress, Executive Vice President-Tourism of Hunden Partners. They explain it all in a way that is relatable to what we do in associations inside and outside of our conferences and events. Whether you are new to the concept of DMOs and Placemaking or you are a seasoned event planner, you will get a lot out of this conversation. What questions do you have about the future of connection?
