The Institute of Travel and Tourism (ITT) is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Planet Technology, a global provider of leading-edge technology solutions encompassing telecommunications, mobile, data and cyber security.

This collaboration marks a significant step forward in ITT’s mission to foster communications, innovation and excellence across the travel and tourism industry.

Through this partnership, ITT and Planet Technology will work together to explore cutting-edge technologies that enhance the customer journey, streamline operations for travel providers, and promote sustainability across the sector. By combining ITT’s network of industry leaders with Planet Technology’s expertise, the collaboration aims to accelerate communication transformation in travel.

 Steven Freudmann, Chairman of the Institute of Travel and Tourism, commented: “Our partnership with Planet Technology reflects ITT’s commitment to shaping the future of travel. Together, we’ll provide our members and the wider industry with tools, insights, and innovations that enable smarter, more connected travel experiences.”

Dave Rogers, Founder and CEO at Planet Technology, added: “We’re excited to join forces with ITT and contribute to the advancement of one of the world’s most fulfilling and dynamic industries. Travel is at a communications technology quantum leap, and through this partnership, we aim to empower businesses to deliver frictionless, personalised, and sustainable services to their customers.”

The collaboration will also be led by Andrew Mabbutt, original co-founder of Feefo, the online customer reviews platform, in his recently appointed role as a Non-Executive Director for Planet Technology.

Andrew stated “Feefo’s success across the travel industry was absolutely in part down to our collaboration and networking opportunities with the ITT senior leadership community and I look forward to helping Dave and his team at Planet Technology emulate this in the ever fast changing technology and telecommunications sector. Planet Technology have the same ethos that we had when we started Feefo – putting the travel business and their comms business needs at the heart of every recommended solution, with second to none customer service”

Both organisations share a vision for a more tech-forward travel landscape and this partnership reinforces ITT’s role as the leading professional body for the travel and tourism industry and underscores Planet Technology’s commitment to innovation and industry collaboration.
