Conde Nast Traveler is accepting pitches for its annual Bright Ideas in Travel list — a curated roundup of the most exciting, impactful innovations in the travel space. They’re spotlighting people, places, and projects tackling real-world travel issues like sustainability, accessibility, community, inclusion, wellness, innovation, and conservation.

Got something in motion that’s making waves in the industry? Now’s your time to shine.

What They’re Looking For:

• Your “Bright Idea” must already be in progress and showing clear, measurable impact.
• They welcome ongoing efforts, but not hypotheticals or untested concepts.
• Think: new tourism models, tech for inclusive travel, or green infrastructure with real results.

How to Submit:
Fill out this web form by June 15, 2025.
Even if you’re unsure, check it out — the form is designed to help you shape your pitch clearly and effectively.

Pro Tip: Reports say Conde Nast Traveler pays $1+ per word, so negotiate rates if your pitch is accepted.
