When TOURISM meets TECH
About this event
Join us in person or online and hear from industry experts, case studies and discussions around tech solutions in Australia’s Tourism Industry.
Technology in tourism has a profound impact on the industry movement. It rapidly changes the behaviour of both suppliers and customers in the market. This joint force plays a crucial role in the way we all travel.
Technology revolutionises the tourism industry and determines the strategy and competitiveness of tourism organisations and destinations. Technological innovations are a catalyst for developments which can make the tourism industry more accessible, sustainable and culturally diverse.
This event will provide a gateway for tourism & tech providers plus industry members/community to communicate ideas, share knowledge, increase awareness of industry challenges and opportunities within the tourism industry to deliver value to the future of tech in tourism for South Australia & Australia wide.
