Skift Take

Making the right choices has never been more crucial coming out of this pandemic. Not far from the core of every decision will be technology. Skift is now offering travel executives weekly the critical information needed to build, buy, or partner.

One upside for the travel industry from the pandemic has been the incredible acceleration of technology and innovation. Keeping up with those advances is a challenge, we realize. So starting this Thursday, September 16, Skift’s Senior Travel Tech Editor Sean O’Neill each week will bring readers exclusive reporting and insight into the world of travel tech — and how it is having an impact across the industry.

O’Neill’s Travel Tech Briefing will be an essential read for executives deciding whether to “build, buy, or partner.”

TRAVEL TECH BRIEFING | PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY

The briefing will analyze the digital upheaval in operations, distribution, and marketing and dissect how the shrewdest companies are gaining a technological edge over their rivals for a post-pandemic landscape. The briefing reveals which vendors are winning the most contracts now and which commercial models are prevailing.

O’Neill has been the leading journalist for years covering the trends in technology in travel. His Startup Funding Roundup column every Friday is a must-read from Silicon Valley to the CTO offices at major airlines and hotel companies. This new briefing will bring you more of the same — information you won’t read anywhere else.
