Abacus conference heads for Abu Dhabi
Abacus will host its biennial Abacus International Conference (AIC) in Abu Dhabi this year.
More than 500 delegates will be flying into Abu Dhabi to evaluate and debate the latest technological innovations around travel, in the context of the trends now driving booking behaviour across the 31 regional markets that Abacus serves.
The technology company will highlight how strategic investment in network infrastructure will stimulate demand.
Robert Bailey, president and CEO for Abacus, said the Middle East’s aviation brands were now themselves trending in Asia Pacific, "with the region’s award-winning hubs attracting over ten-fold increases in bookings on the most popular routes, year-on-year".
"Abu Dhabi is the right setting to talk about ground breaking growth and enterprise," Bailey added.
Along with leading industry speakers, separate tracks will refine retail strategies, expand big data’s role and showcase the latest automation tools.
The AIC Conference will be held on October 14-17 at the Yas Events Centre.
