Amazing work by the team! So excited to see this product in market.

It was great to SXSW Sydney in Sydney! What an amazing event and I was thrilled to participate in the Discovery Stage panel on Navigating the new normal : Shaping the future of brand partnerships. A huge thanks to the panel host Richard Penny from No Standing, Patrick Millington Buck from Virgin Australia and Tahlia Phillips from Concrete Playground. Also a big congrats INVNT® for all of your outstanding work in making the event a huge success.

I'm looking forward to joining the conference speaker lineup and taking part in an exciting conversation on the Discovery Stage. We’ll be discussing the future of brand partnerships and how technology will give rise to fresh opportunities and erode traditional boundaries. Full details below, hope to see you there (11am on Saturday, October 21). https://lnkd.in/gEbGSZCr Let me know if you’re attending and would like to connect. #SXSW #branding #technology

Thanks to Brandy Shaul and @Adweek for including me in this story about the launch of Tripadvisor's innovative campaign with the @San Diego Tourism Authority! Brought to market by our in-house creative shop, Wanderlab by Tripadvisor, the campaign engages travelers interested in traveling to sunnier shores and who might be California dreaming! The painted murals by local artists in markets like NYC, Chicago and Los Angeles connect travelers to an augmented reality experience celebrating travel to San Diego, bringing the offline world into the digital.

Reflecting on the last couple of weeks, which saw me dip my toe back into the world of industry events for the first time since joining Tripadvisor. My first stop was #itbberlin2023, the world’s largest travel event. I want to thank the team for organizing such an incredible conference, particularly Lea Jordan, who hosted me on the main stage in front of a packed out crowd. This was an amazing opportunity to share all the exciting news coming out of Tripadvisor, along with some broader thoughts around 2023 travel marketing trends.   Hot on the heels of ITB was #sxsw23, a whirlwind of partner meetings in the wonderful chaos of Austin, TX. I also had the chance to catch up with Seraj Bharwani about all things marketing during Brand Innovators’ Marketing Leadership Summit. Spending time with humanitarian Chef Jose Andres and our friends and partners at World Central Kitchen also a highlight at the MediaLink event! There is so much momentum and creativity out there in our industry right now and jet lag withstanding, it was a joy to connect with global industry partners face-to-face. Both events also served as timely reminders that there really is no better way to make new connections than in-person. I look forward to connecting with many of you at industry events in 2023. https://lnkd.in/gtUVYCyJ
