Our international team of reporters and contributors bring the latest news and opinion to the travel sector and its related and diverse industries. And guest editorial posts by subject-matter experts provide unique perspectives. In the constantly changing digital travel economy, new entrants disrupt the status quo, established players consider how best to adapt and grow, and technology at the heart of this evolution advances at a dizzying pace. Nowhere else on the web covers this ecosystem like tnooz. OUR FOUNDING STORY Launched in September 2009, tnooz was the first independent voice covering the travel and hospitality technology industries. We focus on technology, digital distribution, media and marketing, web strategy, startups and financing in the travel sector. After careers in the media, research, events and technology, founders Gene Quinn, Kevin May and Frederic Lalonde saw a gap in the media landscape for a fresh, upfront and analytical approach to covering technology in the world’s largest industry. CONTRIBUTING TO TNOOZ The tnooz editorial team is always looking for viewpoints that provide valuable expertise and knowledge to our community. We are also often looking for freelance contributors to bolster our local coverage of such a global industry.
