Why Travel Analytics Need a Rethink


Corinium APAC Content Director Vanessa Jalleh sits down with Travel + Leisure Co’s Director for Financial Planning and Analysis and Analytics, Lucas Ramos, to talk about a post-COVID hospitality sector.

The travel sector has experienced massive change over the past three years, from peaking in 2019, to being nearly non-existent mid-2020 and, finally, bouncing back in 2022. Travel has undergone something of a renaissance, and with that change comes a need for data and analytics to provide the ever-important business insights into what is next.

Ahead of his appearance at CDAO Brisbane 2023, Lucas Ramos, who is the Director for Financial Planning and Analysis and Analytics at Travel + Leisure Co, says he will be discussing why data and analytics can initially fail to take off and how the right metrics can take the project in the desired direction.

Unlocking the Potential of Data Visualisation

We recently spoke with Bree Dorant, Data Visualisation Lead at Rio Tinto to explore the power of combining creative and data skills to build visualisation and how engagement with teams throughout the process can result in real value from data. 

Rio Tinto’s Bree Dorant had an unusual route into the data space, having studied art before moving into economics. The Data Visualisation Lead believes the blend of skills between art and data is vital to deliver visualisations that engage and deliver insights.

“When someone has that blend of skills, it always seems to work out best. You want to be into coding, but if you also have that design flair, or an interest in art, the ability to bring these two together is really helpful” she says.
