U.S. Acting Commerce Secretary Rebecca Blank today appointed four travel and tourism industry leaders to serve on the Corporation for Travel Promotion (CTP) Board of Directors, including one new member and three reappointments. Established by the Travel Promotion Act (TPA), which was signed into law by President Obama in 2010, the CTP is a non-profit corporation that promotes business, leisure, and scholarly travel to the United States, and helps communicate U.S. entry policies to international audiences. The Corporation for Travel Promotion launched Brand USA earlier this year, an effort to market the United States to visitors from all over the world.
