Travel DAZE

  • Written by: Daisy Melwani



Travel DAZE
 is going to help you survive the apocalypse that is already rocking the boat in the tourism industry. Don't be left without a paddle! It's Australia's first-ever TED style ideas, marketing and strategy event for the travel industry.

With a thought-provoking and talented bunch of speakers from here and abroad, they're going to be spinning more ideas and industry tales than you can poke a stick at, coupled with the fresh edge this industry needs, Travel DAZE is an event you simply can't afford to miss.

Still looking for reasons to get tickets now? Here's 7:

1. If Richard Branson launched a travel industry conference, this would be it.
2. To exchange ideas and stories to challenge the status quo – a must do for travel marketers, business heads, strategists and technologists.
3. Globalisation, cost pressures, and digital technology are revolutionising both consumer demand in tourism and how products and services are delivered. Stay prepped.
4. It's the strongest innovative business forum in the Australian travel industry. Travel DAZE is the first conference focused on the top strategists, technologists, and marketers in travel. These are the people shaping the future of travel and tourism in 2015 and beyond.
5. Travel DAZE is inside the innovation community.
6. People are stuck in incumbent businesses with old platforms while other people are struggling with new problems in start ups. The two can help each other if only they shared stories and insight. Travel DAZE brings these people together.
7. Because the rules have changed. And you don't have the answers. Yet.

If you need more reasons to attend or you want to get in touch to find out more, follow the links down the rabbit hole and get inspired.

Seriously, what are you waiting for? Grab a ticket to this revolutionary travel event NOW.
