DestinationNext is the title of the Finger Lakes Visitor Connection's 2021-2025 Strategic Plan. The strategic plan was developed working with Young Strategies using a Destinations International Destination Next format. The plan was developed in the first six months of 2021 and provides strategic focus for Finger Lakes Visitors Connection (FLVC) through 2025.
It is based on input from 89 community, civic and travel industry leaders who participated in the DestinationNext Planning Model. A survey was deployed January-May 2021 and a planning workshop was conducted in Ontario County with the Finger Lakes Visitors Connection Board of Directors and staff in May 2021. Berkeley Young of Young Strategies, Inc. Young led the planning process with strategies identified by the FLVC workshop included in this strategic plan.
