Back on 3 October 2019, the Travel Massive Dublin Chapter hosted a special meet-up that focused on enterprise sales for companies working in travel, and it was a hit! The local community gravitated to the “master class” that explored what it takes to sell technology to airlines and larger travel brands, uncovering insights from commercial practitioners at Travelport, Cartrawler, and Boxever.

It was so popular that … we are taking another look at the topic four years on with rock stars Ultan O’Brien, Head of Sales for Viasat IFE and Viasat Advertising Platform for EMEA and Asia Pacific (R.O.W.); Riona McHale (née Mc Grath) Travelport's Commercial Head of UK and Ireland; and Bryan Porter, Chief Revenue Officer at Datalex.
- How have the events over the last four years changed the landscape of doing business in travel?
- What can enterprise sales learn from the rise (and decline) of SaaS and vice versa?
- How can you keep motivated in an environment marked by punishingly long sales cycles?
Discover answers to these questions and more at this special event. Former marketing leader at Accelya, Farelogix, and OpenJaw Technologies, and owner of marketing consultancy Sparkling Communications, Amanda Campbell will moderate the expert panel with support from fellow Travel Massive Community Leaders, Kevin O’Shaugnessy, CEO and Founder of CityHook and Mark Lenahan, Head of Retailing Strategy at Travelport.
