Day 1 | 19th November

2:20 PM Innovation Spotlight: The Feedback Graveyard: Why insights never become action and how three travel brands are bucking the trend

Customer feedback is worth millions a single star increase allows hotels to charge 11.2% more per night. Yet most travel brands collect thousands of insights monthly and can't prove anyone acted on them.

Through platforms like Wordnerds, AI-driven categorisation is now mature. The real bottleneck? Turning insights into decisions, decisions into action, and action into measurable improvement.

This session reveals three frameworks travel brands are using right now to transform feedback from reports nobody reads into automated and systematic improvement everyone can see and track:

  • Living user journeys
  • Competitor benchmarking
  • Smart segmentation

Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining Pete.
