RHYTHM and RENEWAL
Smaller room.
Stronger connection.
TAMS IGNITE brings business travel and meetings leaders together to work on real industry challenges, exchange honest ideas and build relationships that continue long after Nashville.
April 12-13, 2027
Nashville, TN
Two focused days for ideas, access and useful conversation.
Serving as executive co-lead on the Revolution project for the TAMS Ignite conference was one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. Our team mentored UC Irvine students through their senior capstone as they built and scaled an industry-first hotel sourcing technology. TAMS gave us total freedom to imagine, create, and innovate, and that trust made all the difference. Watching the students turn bold ideas into something real was inspiring, and I came away energized about the future of our industry. If you want to give back, grow your network, and shape what comes next, get involved with TAMS.”

WHY IGNITE FEELS DIFFERENT
Built for participation - not disappearing into a crowd.
01
USEFUL ACCESS
A smaller environment gives buyers, suppliers and partners more opportunities for meaningful conversations.
IGNITE is intentionally focused. The format gives people enough space to ask better questions, contribute their experience and have conversations worth continuing.
I'm still reeling from the conversations. It will definitely be on my budget for next year. Such amazing thinkers, action makers and thought provokers!"
Kelly Gagne, Director of Global Sales, Omni Hotels
02
PRACTICAL WORK
Sessions are designed around participation, honest discussion and ideas attendees can take back to work.
03
CONNECTIONS THAT CONTINUE
The experience begins before Nashville and creates pathways to stay connected through the TAMS community.
