The 10 most read articles on our blog about big data in tourism

At Mabrian, as a leading tourism intelligence company, we believe in data-driven decisions. For this reason, our technology and methodology allow us to identify all the information a destination needs to improve its competitiveness, its attractiveness, and its sustainability in order to align those with marketing strategies  that are successful. 

Through our blog we periodically publish articles about tourism that deal with current issues. The data and conclusions that we share in these publications come from our tourism intelligence work, where we analyze a large amount of data and cross-reference it to obtain real-time information easily and quickly.
