The team
Bradley Dean
Managing Director
Bradley Dean is the co-founder of Quadra Innovations and Granite Productions, both founded in 2010, with offices in Oakville and Toronto, Ontario. These marketing, communications and promotions agencies serve international travel destinations that are seeking to increase market share, sales, and brand recognition in the North American travel trade and consumer market.
Before launching Quadra and Granite, Bradley served as Director of Sponsorship for Premier Consumer Shows, Canada’s largest consumer event company with verticals in Travel, Golf, Bridal, Culinary and 50+ markets.
In 2021, Bradley produced the first national online travel trade and consumer virtual show, which hosted 125+ international destinations and thousands of travel-hungry consumers during the Covid pandemic. 2023 marked the launch of “Granite Travel Trade Expos” at GraniteTravelExpos.com. The series of regional travel trade events is designed to connect industry suppliers and top-producing travel agents, facilitating valuable and essential in-person interactive consultations and presentations.
Bradley has lectured at Mohawk College, Humber College and various marketing summits on integrated marketing and sponsorship. Bradley is also the co-founder of WheelsUpNetwork.com / Global Agents, North America’s most effective online travel/trade resource centre, dedicated to providing critical product information, educational tools, promotions, contesting, FAM trips, and trade specials to the travel industry. Global Agents has dedicated websites in the USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Spain, Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia.
In addition to being a passionate marketer, Bradley volunteers with CAMH and supports initiatives benefiting mental health. Bradley lives in Oakville, Ontario but truly feels at home spending time at the cottage on Georgian Bay.
