Insights gleaned from a quarter-century in the travel tech sector regarding the evolution of customized user experiences
Buckle up, folks! We're diving into the mind of Francis Hellyer, a trailblazing entrepreneur and tech titan who's shattered the glass ceiling more times than one. This guy's the brains behind, you guessed it, tickadoo - an AI-powered city exploration and ticketing platform with a mission to redefine the way we play.
But hold up, there's more! Francis has a stash of impressive accomplishments tucked under his startup belt. For instance, he co-founded London Theatre Direct, the very first online ticket platform in the UK, raking in a cool billion in sales. Say whaaat? Yeah, we're impressed too.
His innovative spirit doesn't stop there, oh no, not our man Francis! He also jumped headfirst into audiodrama production with Audiama, a Cardiff-based company. And, if that doesn't highlight his passion for the arts, he also leads an audio drama podcast.
Francis isn't just a dreamer, though. He's a doer. He drafted the blueprints for Metaverse Ventures, a venture capital firm that pumps cash into the hottest, cutting-edge tech out there. Plus, tune in to his "Tech To The Future" podcast for a deep dive into climate tech, blockchain, and the future of everything.
Yup, if you want to know what's next in the tech world, Francis Hellyer is your guy.
