Staged annually in Buenos Aires, GNETWORK360 is a 3-day B2B event.  More than 1000 attendees join together to share information, & learn about LGBT niche market.  At the 14th annual conference on LGBT tourism & hospitality in December, I had the opportunity to sit down with Pablo De Luca and  Gustavo Noguera, the founders of this event, to learn about their careers, travel experiences, and learn about what is to come from GNETWORK360 in 2014.

An audio recording of our podcast interview is above.  Next week, the video version will be available on www.communitymarketinginc.com

Some highlights of our conversation:

• 
  
• In 2014, GNETWORK360 will be held from August 6-8
  
• One day of the event will be dedicated to diversity and inclusion in the workplace, and include a JOB FAIR
  
• How the event grew from an intimate gathering intended for 40 people to 1400+ attendees
  
• Registration to this event is completely FREE
  
• On Argentina, “Two foreigners can get married in Argentina in less than 5 days.” [my wedding destination, perhaps? :)]
  
• On Buenos Aires, imagine a “European city in Latin America” with every climate from “jungle to snow”.
  
• On Mendoza, “known for Malbec everywhere, but has 2nd largest gay party in Argentina right after gay pride in Buenos Aires.  200,000 people attend in March, they celebrate ‘gay harvest’ after the traditional harvest.”
  
• The role that AUTHENTICITY plays in the pursuit of a successful career, whether you are in the tourism industry or not.
