Tourism is an international industry where the internet has brought about a paradigm shift in the marketplace. Competition for tourism spend is more fierce today than it has ever been before.

To prosper in this new business landscape, the tourism industry must evolve to compete with the world’s best destinations. A grassroots revolution in business attitudes, skills and the use of technology are core to this objective.

If we are to be successful now and in the future, HIE believes Business Leadership and Productivity hold the key to the sea-change required. The HIE Network are committed to continuing support for initiatives that bring about change in the culture and practices of the tourism industry in the region. Among these practical initiatives that we are happy to support are Pride and Passion, Hospitality Assured and e-business development projects.
