Ahead of his live fireside chat today, Chief Commercial Officer Greg Schulze touched on Expedia Group’s approach to partnerships.
Why are lasting partnerships such an important part of the travel industry?
For more than 25 years, Expedia Group has provided a global marketplace for travellers and companies. Travel partnerships are vital for industry growth, enabling supply partners, OTAs/travel agents, and businesses to combine their expertise and thrive. Strong, lasting partnerships demonstrate the benefits of collaboration. This is critical to how we approach partnerships at Expedia Group.
What role does Expedia Group play in helping travel partners navigate an increasingly dynamic market?
With nearly 200 booking sites across 75+ markets in 40 languages, our consumer brands connect partners to a diverse global audience. We are also an established B2B leader, partnering with over 60,000 travel businesses and 140,000 agents, across 230 countries.
