Sabre’s First Travel Technology Exchange Conference in Asia Pacific Opens in Beijing

[HD videos below] Sabre is hosting over 500 travel agents, airline and supplier representatives and members of the APAC travel industry in China this week, to discuss breakthrough technologies making waves at the intersection of travel and technology.

Notably, Sabre will be revealing its newest breakthrough product for selling and booking, the new Sabre Red Workspace merchandising platform, alongside other key solution showcases.

Speakers from Sabre’s Asia Pacific and US leadership teams are at the event to discuss opportunities within the industry – from agency automation to adopting messaging apps for travel – and host a series of dialogues evaluating the most important trends and technologies disrupting travel.

“We want this week to serve as a timely update on what we’re up to, just over one year on from our major regional Travel Network expansion, but also a platform for two-way discussion on what lies ahead. That’s how we ensure we’re evolving with our customers, and their unique challenges,” said Roshan Mendis, senior vice president of Sabre Travel Network Asia Pacific. “New technologies are best adopted when people talk and share their experiences. The next few days are all about the exchange.”

The Travel Technology Exchange (TTX) Asia Pacific 2016 is taking place at the luxurious JW Marriot Hotel Beijing.

On the choice of location for the event, Roshan said, “A lot of the 425,000 travel agency subscribers to Sabre’s global travel marketplace are selling travel to China today, and this includes many of our travel agency customers in APAC. So it seemed apt that we hold our first major Sabre APAC travel technology industry event here in this important global tourism destination.”

In 2015, over 25 million foreigners visited China of which over 60% were Asian tourists.
