The summit will provide industry leaders in the hotel and airline industry with solutions to overcome these challenges and will evaluate the latest trends in revenue management, and new innovations for new products and marketing strategies.

Ramesh Venkat, Senior Vice President, Yield Management, Emirates, UAE will be addressing the ‘Revenue Management Summit' in Dubai on 12 – 13 October 2008 at the JW Marriott Hotel, Dubai, UAE.

Venkat will deliver a crucial address at the summit on ‘Successfully Integrating Revenue Management Into An Organisation's Structure'.

Tarek El Sherif, Regional Director, Sales and marketing, believes "Revenue Management should not be limited to the job of a revenue manager, however, it should become a business life style for all employees from top to bottom. Although it has been created by airlines and later adopted by hotels, revenue management has been introduced to too many other industries such as cinemas and theatres, hospitals, restaurants and even retail shops, it became the logical choice to sell the right product to the right clients at the right price and at the right time."
