Formerly led the Ottawa Gatineau Hotel Association
Ottawa Tourism announced today that Dick Brown, former head of the Ottawa Gatineau Hotel Association, will act as the tourism association’s interim President and CEO, effective Monday, July 13, 2015, after the departure of Noel Buckley, who led the organization for the past seven and a half years.
Geoff Publow, Chair of Ottawa Tourism, said, “Ottawa Tourism has a solid team and solid plans in place; the board of directors is confident in Dick Brown’s ability to oversee our sales and marketing efforts as we seek a permanent replacement for Noel Buckley.”
“I am pleased to work with the board of directors, members and staff of Ottawa Tourism,” said Dick Brown, “as well as with the Destination Marketing Program, the Ottawa Gatineau Hotel Association, and our municipal, provincial and federal partners. I look forward to continuing the strong work that has been done to date to promote Canada’s capital at home and abroad.”
Ottawa Tourism provides destination marketing, strategic direction and leadership in cooperation with members and partners to attract visitors, tours and conventions to Ottawa and Canada’s capital region. Its vision is to build recognition of Ottawa as an outstanding four-season tourism destination.
