Ai Lions Den (for all confeence tracks) With very thin margins, airlines & travel/hospitality providers must embrace innovative new products and better ways of business. The Lions' Den is a showcase of new products & services in which companies are given a 5-minute sales pitch live & unrehearsed to our board of Lions. Honest & critical feedback on the product & sales pitch is then provided in front of our conference audience. The Lions' Den is consistently an audience favorite at Ai's events. |
