No single market is more valuable to the global travel industry than China. With more than 150 million Chinese travelers cancelling their domestic and international trips due to coronavirus, the tourism industry – worth 10 percent of global GDP – is being hit hard.
From Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs), to museums, to cultural monuments, the pivot to digital has been a swift and necessary attempt to maintain social engagement. In China, however, this transformation took place years ago. Understanding the nuances of its digital landscape is essential for those hoping to connect with a young, digital-savvy, and curious consumer. Strategies and platforms that prove successful for markets in Europe and America are, more often than not, redundant in China.
Join us this coming Wednesday (May 27) for a webinar on the rise of Chinese cultural tourism. We are delighted to be joined by our partners at China Luxury Advisors and WITH Paris for this webinar.
