Tourism Innovation Day 2008
TID 2008 is at Hampden Park and showcases the best and latest in tourism technology. You’ll be inspired by high profile tourism leaders who have used technology to succeed.

The Sabre Travel Network includes the world’s largest global distribution system (GDS), connecting travel agents and travel/tourism suppliers with travellers. Their mission is “to connect people with the world’s greatest travel possibilities” none of which would be possible without technology.
Ben Vinod is an internationally recognized expert in the field of global distribution, pricing and revenue management. He has pioneered the development of advanced pricing and yield management in a variety of travel related industries, including airlines, hotels, railroads, cruise lines and car rental companies.
He now has a cross-functional role at Sabre Holdings to drive product strategy and direction, new product innovation and sales support.
A new format for Workshops will allow you to talk to technology providers who understand the “pain points” and opportunities in tourism operations. You can also benefit from the experience of like-minded tourism businesses that use technology to develop their business – in applications such as yield management, ticketing, mapping, market research, customer intelligence, guest or visitor retention as well as the web and Web 2.0 for marketing and online distribution.
