Sept 22: Nicki and the Tourism Hall of Fame

Back in 2001, VISIT FLORIDA established The Tourism Hall of Fame Award. Usually, this award has been given to several long-deceased pioneers of our industry each year at the annual state governor’s conference. Recognizing those who’ve had a significant and positive impact on the tourism industry, the award was changed this year to go to one person who is currently active in the industry.

How wonderful it is that our own Nicki Grossman, president and CEO of the Greater Fort Lauderdale CVB (and a great supporter of our HSMAI chapter), was the one person chosen to be inducted this year. As you know, Nicki’s impressive career includes holding the top position at the CVB since 1995 and seven years serving on the Florida commission on Tourism. And this year, she’s the Chair for VISIT FLORIDA.


Won’t you join me in offering congratulations to Nicki?
