We also provide specialized services that enable the airline industry and travel vertical to deliver personalized experiences at scale, able to reach tens of thousands of active user sessions per second.
In 2019, the travel and tourism industry contributed US$8.9 trillion to the global GDP and drove 10.3% of the world economic output, according to the WTTC. The vast size of the travel industry makes it uniquely compelling from an investment perspective; the diversity of segments and businesses across its landscape also make it technically complex. While the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the vertical, the areas of focus for airShopRQ align precisely with the categories where industry leadership has demonstrated new or continued investment.
We help companies in the travel business to deliver on the vision of differentiation, personalization, and a seamless end-to-end experience. We support best-of-breed technology providers to develop vertical strategies and apply their capabilities to the travel industry’s most important needs.
