The Tourpreneur podcast is back! After a summer hiatus while operators were busy operating... we're returning to our weekly schedule of conversations and insights for the tours & activities industry.

To kick off the fall season, TP partners Mitch Bach, Peter Syme and Chris Torres chat through everything that's been happening in the industry over the past month:

• What we hear about an industry 'slowdown' or 'softening' for tour operators, and whether it should change your business and marketing strategies
• AI: is it overhyped? Is the bubble bursting? Pete and Mitch debate humans vs. AI: what's the future hold? Will it be as revolutionary as the internet, or another overhyped flawed and failed technology like the Metaverse?
• the Google anti-trust ruling: how does a potential disruption in search affect operators?
• What Mitch learned about market positioning and B2B partnerships at the SYTA student youth travel conference in NYC
• The EU's new cookie law and its privacy implications for operators
• connecting with short term rental owners and other B2B strategies
• Peter speaking at WeTravel's travel tech innovation summit next week
