On the afternoon of Wednesday 8th November, from 15:00, iambassador will be hosting two back-to-back sessions and both will deliver powerful insights into the world of working with influencers. One of these sessions will present the key findings of the Social Travel Summit Think Tank which took place at this year’s Social Travel Summit in Kitzbühel, Tirol, in Austria.
