DataArt Team at the World Aviation Festival
In 2022, DataArt partnered with the World Aviation Festival as a Silver Sponsor and had a chance to exhibit and connect with industry professionals.
DataArt’s participation in the exhibition was not only essential to communicate new ideas and establish new contacts but also to support and raise awareness of our Ukrainian colleagues through charity activity organized at the event. For each person who came into our booth and hit a button on our Charity counter, DataArt committed to transfer $1 to a charity fund supporting Ukraine.
During the three impactful festival days, DataArt’s team and experts, Mike King and Apurva Mathur, revealed how DataArt could empower aviation technologies using AI/ML and data analytics, customized e-commerce software, and cloud applications.
With more than 25 years of experience in aviation, Apurva Mathur joined the distribution panel at World Aviation Festival, entitled, “Has the power dynamic now fully shifted, and are we finally moving towards a modern way of retailing where we can reap the benefits of NDC, multi-modal, AI/ML and also (eventually) ONE Order?”
The distribution panel was moderated by Henry Harteveldt, President at Atmosphere Research Group, and included speakers from top airlines like KLM, Swiss Airlines, Lufthansa Group, and online retailers like Vipper and Dohop. The speakers discussed paths toward customer-centric retailing, how airlines use AI/ML to deliver more suitable offers, and what roles GDSs play in the new era of aviation retailing.
“It was an insightful discussion on how airlines and retailers are using technology to advance retailing throughout the journey value chain,” said Apurva Mathur.
Following several challenging years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which reshaped customer behavior, the aviation industry is transforming by taking advantage of the newest digital solutions. By participating in the World Aviation Festival, DataArt joins the movement for a better and sustainable future of aviation by leveraging its travel tech expertise.
