Amélie Racine
A few years after finishing my Bachelor’s program in Tourism Management, I worked with the Tourism Intelligence Network as part of the 2005-2006 Jeunes professionnels à l’international program. I was given the chance to do a study on bicycle touring in Switzerland, Germany, and the Netherlands.
My rather unusual career path allowed me to explore several aspects of the tourism industry. Working as an analyst today, it is now a privilege to satisfy my curiosity through business intelligence. I am fascinated by the technologies being used in the tourism industry and aware of the need to orient our actions toward sustainable models. I am also impressed by the creativity that allows business operators at home and abroad to stand out in their field and continue to break new ground in their practices and management methods.
