Aviation and Tourism. Building a Visitor EconomyBronwyn White
This presentation discusses the close relationship between aviation and tourism, which have experienced joint growth globally. It notes some large numbers that demonstrate aviation's significant economic impact on the visitor economy, including supporting over 50 million jobs. Low-cost carriers in particular have been game changers by making destinations more accessible and creating new tourism markets. While LCC passengers may spend less, the revenue from their visits spreads more widely in local economies. The presentation argues that emotional engagement with places through travel is the key measure of value and driver of tourism growth. It promotes a new vision of using aviation to connect people in a way that enriches the world.

COVID-19: Impact on Creative Jobs – Ekaterina TravkinaOECD CFE
The creative and cultural sectors have been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in major cities where these industries drive a large portion of the economy. Jobs in these sectors are often non-standard, precarious, and lack safety nets. While governments have implemented unprecedented rescue responses, a more targeted support package is needed to address the specific challenges faced by creative workers and businesses. A collaborative approach between different levels of government, businesses, foundations and other organizations will be crucial to help the cultural and creative sectors survive the crisis and build greater resilience going forward.

When Tech meets Culture: perspectives from AfricaSpeck&Tech
ABSTRACT: This talk introduces some of the problematics about International Development Aid going through the highlights of my work experience as ICT manager in an international development project in Sierra Leone. Moreover, it will give different perspectives about Africa compared to the one usually portrayed by media, highlighting some success stories of African innovations and discussing the role of technology in tackling some of the future African continent’s challenges.
BIO: Luca Cimonetti worked as software engineer in several European countries: Austria, Netherlands and France. Following my interest for ICT4D, I recently worked as ICT manager in an international development project in Sierra Leone with the aim of building a national emergency medical service. I am currently working as freelance web developer based in Trento.
A panel with hospitality experts about the rise of hospitality as an asset class and why it is getting so much attraction in the industry thanks to the new balance between investors, developers and hotel operators.
Africa has experienced periods of hope, decline, and renewed growth since decolonization in the 1960s. After initial optimism in the 1960-70s, economic and social conditions deteriorated in the 1970s-90s due to rising dependency ratios, conflicts fueled by the Cold War, and slowing GDP growth. However, since the 1990s Africa has seen increasing political pluralism, economic reforms, and boosted trade and investment as globalization accelerated. Looking ahead, Africa's growing and youthful population, urbanization, rising middle class, and developing infrastructure present opportunities for expanded consumption, retail growth, technology adoption and increased trade and exports.

This document provides an overview of developing resilient supply chains for the African consumer market. It discusses trends that will shape the African consumer market over the coming years, including the emergence of a middle class with discretionary income, a predominantly mobile digital consumer, a focus on value and saving money, a young and fast-growing population, urbanization and the rise of cities, and Africa's potential as a global food supplier. The size and growth of the African consumer market is significant and supply chains will need to adapt to its unique characteristics and trends to succeed.
Shine, clare media academy sustainability presentation shine (21 july 2015)Salzburg Global Seminar
The document discusses several topics related to global population trends, urbanization, infrastructure, and sustainability challenges. It notes that the world population will reach 8 billion by 2024, with over two-thirds living in urban areas by 2050. This rapid urbanization will require massive infrastructure investments and pose challenges around issues like water access and scarcity. It also examines trends around increased internet and device connectivity, and how "smart cities" can help address issues of governance, education, and sustainable energy.

The document provides an overview of global poverty and economic development. It discusses that nearly half the world lives in poverty, though some countries have transitioned from poor to rich. Africa continues to lag behind in development. Mobile technology is enabling growth in poor countries. There is debate around how to reduce extreme poverty.
This document discusses Africa's economic growth acceleration since 2000 and business opportunities on the continent. Some key points:
- Africa's GDP grew at an average of 4.7% annually from 2000-2010, making it the third fastest growing region in the world. This was driven by commodity booms, greater stability, widespread reforms, and urbanization.
- Four sectors - infrastructure, agriculture, resources, and consumer facing - could represent combined revenues of $2.6 trillion by 2020, presenting significant business opportunities. Demand for food and agricultural production is also projected to greatly increase through 2030.
Hospitality Outlook - Cote d'Ivoire.pptxssuser26623c2
The document summarizes the hospitality industry outlook for Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) in 2018. It finds that the industry is growing significantly, with tourism accounting for 4.8% of GDP and expected to increase by 5.6% annually over the next decade. Major hotel chains are investing in the country, with over $300 million invested from 2012-2016. However, there remains a deficit of rooms meeting international standards, with demand estimated at 5,000 rooms compared to only 2,200 available currently. The outlook represents opportunities for further investment and partnership with local businesses to develop the hospitality market.
Tourism is the industry that provides services for people on vacation. It is considered a tertiary industry that employs more people than any other sector. In 2003, there were over 691 million international tourist arrivals that generated $523 billion in receipts. Many less economically developed countries see tourism as an opportunity for economic development and it contributes a large percentage to their GDP. The most popular international destinations in 2005 were France, Spain, the United States, Italy, and China, although factors like weather, currency exchange rates, and events can impact tourism numbers.

Tunisia's economic potential is constrained by its low productivity and Total Factor Productivity growth. Digital transformation presents an opportunity to leapfrog to more innovative and efficient stages of development. Developing Tunisia's financial system through digital technologies is key to allocating resources more efficiently, increasing investment and savings, and promoting inclusive development. However, Tunisia's financial system development is lagging due to factors like state intervention, weak property rights, and underdeveloped capital markets. Unlocking the full potential of Tunisia's digital economy will require strengthening digital skills, financing, platforms, and entrepreneurship.
