In this episode of FEO on the Air we are joined by Kevin Forget, Manager of Media Relations for Destination Ontario.

At Destination Ontario, the consumer’s overall perception of Ontario as a place to invest their time and money while travelling is the number 1 priority. Kevin works with Festivals and Events in the Province to teach them how to cultivate relationships and partnerships with their local media. Radio, Television, Newspaper, Print, social media etc are all covered. Our FEO members are encouraged to use his expertise to improve how the media can partner with organizers to promote and help grow their festival or event.

Kevin will be one of the speakers at our upcoming FEO "INNOVATE" Conference in Richmond Hill Feb. 25-27. If you are interested in more information, just visit www.destinationontario.com or @ontariokevin on both Twitter and Instagram. You can also reach Kevin by email at [email protected].
