Pegasus’ John Owens Speaks at Travelport’s e-volve ‘14

John Owens, senior vice president, distribution sales for Pegasus Solutions, spoke this week at Travelport's e-volve '14 in Monte Carlo. Owens discussed current industry trends at the event.

"Following the World Tourism Organization's report that last year's 1.09 billion tourists will increase by 4.0 to 4.5 percent this year, the Monte Carlo summit helped travel industry leaders learn how to take advantage of that growth," said Owens. "I was honored to share Pegasus' view based on what we're seeing in the year ahead – from global, regional and channel trends to best practices for burgeoning mobile growth."

Over the past three years, Travelport's hugely successful e-volve summits have set the benchmark for travel industry events. This year's 'e-volve XXL Content' summit drew Western Europe's leading travel companies searching for new travel content, solutions and marketplaces. Leading global travel company Pegasus Solutions plays a critical role for many who attended, bridging the gap between hotels and distributors. Pegasus is the single largest processor of electronic hotel transactions.
