Last year at WiT Singapore, Ross Veitch, Chief Executive & Co-founder, Wego made a number of bold predictions about the future of travel, technology, and the Artificial Intelligence revolution.
Trust us, you’ll be surprised at how many he got right. He dishes out a few hot takes on the ways jobs will shift because of AI and tools like ChatGPT.
In particular, he believes it will usher in a new golden age of travel disruption from new startups given the affordability and scalability of these new AI tools, posing threats to older models like Wego – but of course, he will face that future with the same fortitude, resilience and agility Wego has demonstrated over its nearly 20-years of existence.
He also speaks about adventures past and present, including some from before the inception of Wego as a company and how his travels shaped him into the CEO of today.
As the company blazes new trails in the Middle East and does more business than pre-pandemic levels, Wego is ready for the next adventure into Destination IPO in the next couple of years.
And, has personalisation truly happened in the travel scene yet? Ross thinks we have a way to go before real personalisation is achieved.
All these, and more, are covered in the podcast. Have a listen.
