#WeAreBannikin

A purposeful company working within and beyond travel and tourism.

We co-create value with tourism businesses, various levels of government, industry associations, and not-for-profit organizations. People and place are at the centre of everything we do.

Our core service streams are: 1) strategy and development, 2) travel trade development, 3) media relations, and 4) speaking & facilitation.

About Us

Value Co-Creation

We recognize and appreciate that value can only be co-created. In other words, value is produced through interactions between people and organizations. This is why we strive to co-create value with clients and partners.
