AI-powered luxury travel festival to debut in Dubai

Curated by Private Luxury Events, TFest (23-27 February 2020) will take place at the Palm, Dubai, promising a festival-inspired environment for buyers and suppliers to connect.

The three-day show will also feature workshops, talks and networking break out areas.

Delegates will download an app that uses AI matchmaking technology, machine learning and algorithms to make meetings recommendations that become “smarter” over time, to connect buyers and sellers with the most relevant counterpart.

Richard Barnes, chief executive, Private Luxury Events, said: “We launched TFest to make personalised connections happen on a larger scale and in real time, at a single celebratory event where our global luxury travel community can come together.

“We believe AI matchmaking technology will reshape the networking industry and give delegates at our events a better experience, where they have complete control of every interaction and get a better return on their valuable time. It’s going to transform B2B networking by helping everyone get the outcomes they want.”
