#ATMDubai25 – The Final Day!

It may have been the fourth and final day of #ATMDubai25 but that didn’t mean things slowed down at all. The halls were once again a hive of activity and there was more invaluable content across the Travel Technology and Showcase Theatres.

How to gain a career in the travel…
First-up in the Showcase theatre today, we heard from leading industry professionals on how to have a successful career in the sector. The expert panel shared their top tips and inspirational stories with a packed audience.

Following the session, we chatted to Judy Hou of The Emirates Academy who explained more.

Developing tourism skills…
Sticking with the careers theme, next up was a look at growing populations around the world. In particular how large numbers of young people are looking for meaningful and well-paid employment, something the travel sector can deliver for young people with the correct skills.

We chatted to moderator Christopher Warren after the session for an overview of the key points.

Vlogging and podcasting – a great opportunity for your brand…
Over in Travel Tech Theatre this afternoon, it was time for a look at online video and podcasting. With these mediums rapidly becoming the most-consumed forms of media on the internet, the audience received in-depth advice on how they can get ahead of the curve by creating in-house content and collaborating with professional creators.

Following the session speaker Matt Gibson gave us an overview of the key points.

Travel Agents’ Academy…
The ATM Global Stage was all about travel agents today. At 10am the ATM Travel Agents’ Academy got underway, providing dedicated training and networking for travel agents from around the globe.
