When it comes to humans, the “rest of the world”, outside Europe and the US, is not short of them. Asia with its 4.6b population, promising the next billion travellers; Africa with 1.2b, with an average age of 18 years; and the Middle East with nearly 500m, with those aged under 30 accounting for more than half. How will these demographics, with a skew towards digital, social and mobile, shift the global travel industry? Key players in these regions share their domain expertise to unearth opportunities for your business, whether you’re in destination marketing, accommodation, airlines or tours and activities.
