Skift is leading the way in reporting the unfolding relationship between generative AI and the travel industry, and it is clear this is only the beginning. Building upon the ideas and developments that will unfold throughout this year, Skift Global Forum East returns to Dubai this December, presented by the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, to explore the broad impact new technologies will have on travel, as the industry evolves at an accelerated pace not seen before in history.
Join Skift December 12-14 as we bring the Skift Global Forum ethos of fast-paced presentations and incisive interviews with leaders who understand the larger context in which travel operates and the innovations needed to drive the industry ahead.
Join us in Dubai as we discuss these themes and more:
• How Will The Middle East Globalize: How are destinations balancing culture, modernizing infrastructure, and attracting new travelers?
• Expanding Hospitality: As demand remains strong, how are hotel leaders strategizing on future growth and affordability?
• Future of Demographics: How will outbound growth across emerging markets and growth of the middle class impact travel?
• Online Travel’s Next Move: How will platforms and products evolve, drive demand, and become more AI-driven?
• Purpose-Led Design: What is being done to drive change for a more sustainable future and adapt to climate disruptions?
• New Indian & Chinese Travelers: The post-pandemic Chinese traveler is a whole new ballgame, and Indian travelers are poised for a huge surge. How can travel step up?
