We have teamed up with StudentUniverse and Skift to bring you our latest webinar:

Title: The state of student travel
Date: Tuesday, 28 October 2014
Time: 17:00 – 18:00 CET

Student travellers represent a key demographic for travel-brand growth, but only if brands commit to understanding the evolving wants and needs of this primarily youth-driven segment.

In their joint report of the same name, StudentUniverse and Skift define the student traveller, frame their in-destination desires, and break out key changes already happening industry-wide to address the revenue that travel verticals stand to mine within the student-travel space. 

During this session… 

Skift’s James O’Brien will talk you through several aspects of the report, including:

  • Who is the student traveller and what do they want travel brands to supply?
  • How the global nature of the student traveller is evolving, and how the incorporation of technology (but also one-to-one human interaction), alternative tourism activities, and even good design can help court them.
  • What brands already in the student-travel sector are up to, what they’re learning, and what all travel verticals can take from that process.

James will also take questions from the audience during the session.
