high-impact city experiences – designing, managing & marketing the wow! factor |
The IE Business School’s Premium and Prestige Business Observatory has made its primary goal to generate knowledge about the Luxury industry and the Premium sector. In recent years, we have carried out several research studies focusing on different areas related to consumer behavior and perspective of experts. One of the topics in which our research has focused is one of the most relevant industries for both Spain and the Luxury sector: Tourism.
Our focus is Premium Urban Tourism. This time we want to investigate deeper into the impact of technology and digital revolution on the design and experiences’ sale in this sector. How have new players in the tourism sector transformed the customer’s habits and decision making processes? What will define the experience of the future premium urban traveler? What role does technology play? These are just an example of the questions our research will try to answer.
As a part of our methodology, we collect our primary data from consumers in several international markets. In addition to that we look for in-depth interviews with Industry leaders through the creation of an Expert Panel. We will share with this panel the first results of our research and we will reflect on their meaning.
The Premium Urban Tourism Expert Panel meeting will take place on November 22nd in IE Business School. |
