Gifted Travel Network co-founder Vanessa McGovern, who left the group earlier this month, has a new role and title.

McGovern is joining Internova’s Global Travel Collection (GTC) as senior vice president of partner product, marketing and events. The luxury agency announced McGovern’s hiring on Monday, writing that the move “marks a transformative chapter in GTC’s evolution.”

In the role, McGovern will be tasked with deepening GTC’s partner relationships, developing partner programs and “crafting compelling brand stories that celebrate the shared value of advisor-partner collaboration.”

“Joining Global Travel Collection is both a personal milestone and a professional honor,” McGovern said. “GTC is the gold standard in luxury travel, a community rich in entrepreneurial spirit, backed by the global scale and support of Internova, and driven by a bold vision for the future. I’m excited to amplify our advisors’ voices, elevate our partnerships and co-create initiatives that move the entire industry forward.”

GTC President Angie Lice said McGovern’s “leadership will open up new opportunities for collaboration, accelerate growth and further position GTC as the definitive platform for luxury travel innovation.”
