Travelport launches Travelport Digital

Travelport announced the creation of a new organization, Travelport Digital, as part of its strategic focus on the fast-growing digital economy. The new Travelport Digital organisation will optimise the investments that Travelport has made into various digital assets and products over the past couple of years with the aim of growing Travelport’s range of digital services. The formation of the function builds on Travelport’s acquisition last year of MTT, the leading provider of mobile and digital solutions to the travel industry, as well as its investment in Locomote, a corporate travel management platform.  Bryan Conway, a seasoned Travelport executive has been appointed Head of Travelport Digital. Alongside the formation of Travelport Digital, Travelport has also established a new Customer and Marketing Organisation, aimed at fulfilling Travelport’s vision to redefine travel commerce and deliver a market leading customer experience.  This organization will be led by Fiona Shanley, who joins from Microsoft this month. Both Conway and Shanley will report into Chief Commercial Officer, Stephen Shurrock, who joined Travelport from Telefonica Digital at the beginning of the year.
