Following an estimated $1.3 trillion loss in export revenue in 2020 by the World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO), there has been little sense of optimism in the travel industry in 2021 and beyond. Furthermore, travel restrictions have been reintroduced at the start of the new year, as governments try to curb the spread of new, potentially more dangerous variants of the novel coronavirus, making this the worst years in tourism history.
"While much has been made in making safe international travel a possibility, we are aware that the crisis is far from over," UNWTO Secretary-General Zurab Pololikashvili said. "The harmonisation, coordination and digitalisation of COVID-19 travel-related risk reduction measures, including testing, tracing and vaccination certificates, are essential foundations to promote safe travel and prepare for the recovery of tourism once conditions allow."
Join our panel of experts and thought leaders as they share the various Deep Tech solutions to help lay the groundwork for making travel safe again. They will also discuss the importance of collaboration between the government, industry, corporates, and startups to support the travel industry's recovery.
