Digital Travel Summit APAC Day 1, Wednesday April 13th

Wednesday, January 4th, 2017

16:50 Fireside chat: The mature marketplace – where are the new opportunities? OTAs? Mobile? Analytics? And what are the predicted growth rates through 2017?

ANZ is APAC's third largest travel market, and because of its maturity, its growth lags that of many of its neighbour markets, which are smaller and still emerging. Yet despite having the highest online travel penetration in the region, ANZ's online travel growth will continue to outpace its total travel market through 2015.
