“We’re thrilled to host Connect 2021 and have the opportunity to open Puerto Rico’s doors to the industry’s best meetings and events experts,” said Brad Dean, CEO at Discover Puerto Rico. “Welcoming the Connect community will be a testament to Puerto Rico being a strong force in the space—it will further elevate our status as the most technologically-advanced destination in the Caribbean that offers the ease of traveling to a U.S. territory, combined with unparalleled culture and diverse natural offerings.”
Attendees traveling to Puerto Rico for Connect 2021 will be pleased to discover a rich historic and cultural heritage, warm, tropical weather and locals who are known for their genuine hospitality toward visitors.
