The corporate paradox
When things are going well, they say
"Things are going well. Why change things now?"
When things are not going well, they say
"We need to focus on the core. We can't change things now"

Despite this happening again and again, corporations miss big life-ending changes regularly.
Future of travel
We visualized where the four big online travel agencies (OTAs) — Expedia, TripAdvisor, Ctrip, and The Priceline Group — are placing their bets in travel tech. With investments in or acquisitions of 10 travel tech companies each, Expedia and TripAdvisor have been the most active incumbents in private markets since 2013.
