TOURISE and Globant Unveil Game-Changing Report on Agentic Tourism that Sets New Standards for AI-Driven Destination Innovation


RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, Nov 4 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Imagine a traveler’s perfect day planning itself, rerouting around a rainstorm, prompting a café to add staff before the lunch rush, suggesting a quiet gallery when crowds swell. This is the promise of Agentic Tourism, an AI-powered operating model introduced in a new white paper by TOURISE and Globant, a digitally native company that helps organizations thrive in a digital and AI-powered future, with strategic contribution from Kearney. The report, titled Tourism’s AI Takeover: Reinventing Travel through Agentic Tourism, presents a practical framework for transforming the tourism experience, making it more seamless, intelligent, and emotionally resonant.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20251103162356/en/ 

In 2024, tourism generated 10.9 trillion dollars, nearly 10 percent of global GDP, and is projected to reach 16.5 trillion dollars by 2035. AI in the tourism market is expected to grow from 3.4 billion dollars in 2024 to 13.9 billion dollars by 2030; destinations face a clear choice, evolve with coordinated AI adoption or risk fragmentation, inefficiency, and diminished traveler satisfaction.

Released ahead of the inaugural TOURISE Summit in Riyadh this November 11 to 13, 2025, the white paper offers a roadmap for public and private sector leaders to apply AI across five key dimensions: experience, operations, sustainability, wellbeing, and economic opportunity. The goal is to help destinations across the entire tourism ecosystem act now, scale responsibly, and remain human-centered.

A Coordinated Model for the Future of Travel

Agentic Tourism introduces a system of autonomous AI agents governed by people and shared standards. These agents are designed to deliver measurable impact. They aim to reduce wait times, boost satisfaction scores, increase eco-friendly bookings, and unlock new economic value. The model includes five agent archetypes:
  • Experience Maximizer curates and adapts itineraries in real time, managing disruptions and enhancing personalization.
  • Operations Optimizer balances staff, assets, and services to improve efficiency and reduce bottlenecks.
  • Regeneration Guardian surfaces environmental and social impacts to promote responsible travel choices.
  • Wellness Agent uses contextual data to support traveler health, comfort, and safety.
  • Opportunity Connector matches visitors’ interests to local networks, events, and collaborators to create economic value.

The white paper serves as a strategic playbook, helping tourism destinations, governments, operators, platforms, and communities implement these innovations without losing the human touch that defines meaningful travel.

“Agentic Tourism is not just a model. It is a movement and those who adopt it first will shape the trajectory of future sector disruption,” said His Excellency Ahmed Al-Khateeb, Minister of Tourism and Chairman of the Board of TOURISE, “AI empowers every country to embrace an era that uplifts both established and emerging destinations, ensuring inclusive access for all. To accelerate innovation across tourism and its converging sectors, TOURISE will continue to collaborate with industry experts on a series of white papers presenting actionable data and high-impact research to address the sector’s most pressing challenges.”

“Tourism’s next chapter will be championed by destinations that orchestrate technology around people, not the other way around,” said Martín Migoya, CEO and Co-Founder at Globant, “Agentic Tourism provides a blueprint to digitize end-to-end digital experiences so hosts, travel operators, and destinations can transform isolated innovations into interconnected, adaptive and meaningful interactions at every journey.”

SINGAPORE, Oct 31 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lendlease Global Commercial Trust Management Pte. Ltd. (the “Manager”), the manager of Lendlease Global Commercial REIT (“Lendlease REIT”), announces its first quarter business updates for FY2026.

Jem office divestment nears completion

The condition precedent for the divestment of Jem office has been fulfilled, and the transaction is expected to complete by 12 November 2025. Upon completion, the net sales proceeds will be predominately used to repay borrowings, lowering aggregate leverage to approximately 35% on a proforma basis, and terminate associated hedges. A disposal gain of approximately S$8.9 million1 will also be available for distribution to Unitholders.

Operational Performance 

As of 30 September 2025, Lendlease REIT’s portfolio committed occupancy improved to 95.0%3,4. Its retail portfolio continued to demonstrate strength with an occupancy rate exceeding 99%. Occupancy at the Milan office portfolio increased to 88.5%4 from 81.6% in June 2025, supported by active leasing efforts at Building 3.

The lease expiry profile remained well-distributed, with 7.9%5 of net lettable area (“NLA”) and 11.6%5 of gross rental income (“GRI”) due for renewal in FY2026. The portfolio continued to reflect a long weighted average lease expiry (“WALE”) of approximately 7.0 years6 by NLA and 4.8 years6 by GRI.

Positive retail rental reversion

Lendlease REIT’s retail portfolio continued to achieve positive rental reversion of 8.9%2 as at 30 September 2025. Tenant retention was 52.2% mainly due to the exit of Cathay Cineplexes, which has been replaced with Shaw Theatres. Excluding Cathay Cineplexes, tenant retention will be 72.9%.

Visitation continued to improve during the quarter, rising 7.7% year-on-year (“YoY”), supported by targeted initiatives and active engagement efforts. These include campaigns by Singapore government agencies and marketing activations at 313@somerset to drive overall footfall and international interest along Orchard Road. Tenant sales dipped 0.8% YoY7. Excluding the contributions from Cathay Cineplexes8, tenant sales remained largely stable. 

Capital Management 

During the quarter, S$115.5 million of loans have been refinanced. As at 30 September 2025, Lendlease REIT’s gross borrowings were S$1,668.9 million, with a weighted average debt maturity of 2.6 years. The debt portfolio remained fully unsecured, with S$136.1 million in undrawn facilities available to support working capital needs. Sustainability-linked financing represented approximately 93% of total committed debt facilities. 

Approximately 68% of borrowings were hedged to fixed rates, and the weighted average cost of debt improved to 3.09% per annum9 as at 30 September 2025. The interest coverage ratio based on the last reported financial results as at 30 June 2025 is 1.6 times10,11.

Mr. Guy Cawthra, Chief Executive Officer of the Manager, said, “The portfolio continued to demonstrate resilience this quarter, underpinned by healthy operating metrics and disciplined capital management. With the divestment of Jem Office nearing completion, we feel confident that Lendlease REIT is well positioned for resilient growth.”

EBC Financial Group, University of Oxford To Tackle Financial Literacy In New Webinar

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 31 (Bernama) -- EBC Financial Group (EBC) and the University of Oxford’s Department of Economics have announced the next instalment of their acclaimed "What Economists Really Do" (WERD) webinar series.

According to EBC in a statement, the free online webinar, “Think Like an Economist: Financial Literacy and Economic Understanding in an Age of Complexity”, will take place on Nov 11.

This third collaboration builds on previous sessions examining tax evasion and climate economics, and will feature EBC Financial Group (UK) Ltd chief executive officer, David Barrett, University of Oxford Professor Michael McMahon, and moderator Professor Banu Demir Pakel.

Recent Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) findings show 66 per cent of adults lack basic financial literacy, while 39 per cent of UK adults admit to low confidence managing money.

The panel will explore why households and experts interpret economic systems differently and introduce the "Three Es" framework — Explanation, Engagement, and Education—as a pathway to better understanding.

“The biggest challenge to financial literacy today is not complexity; it is  complacency. People assume AI and algorithms can handle all aspects of thinking. But without understanding the economic forces behind data, you are following patterns, not gaining insight,” said Barrett.

Meanwhile, Professor McMahon said: "One of the most striking findings in our research is how even highly educated individuals struggle with basic economic concepts that affect their daily financial decisions.”

He added that this webinar will show how simple interventions—like accessible teaching and clearer central bank communication—can make a measurable difference.

Barrett, a veteran of global finance with nearly 40 years’ experience at firms including AIG, NatWest, and Nomura International, is a returning WERD panellist, having previously discussed "The Economics of Tax Evasion". Professor McMahon, a leading researcher in monetary policy and central bank communication, brings academic depth to the conversation.

This harmony of elegance and performance defines Bodor’s philosophy—merging minimalist aesthetics with advanced technology. By turning complexity into clarity and engineering into art, Bodor drives innovation and design excellence in the laser industry.

Behind these achievements stands Bodor’s manufacturing ecosystem. Its Global Headquarters in Jinan, spanning 200,000 square meters, features intelligent production lines and digital systems with annual output exceeding 20,000 units. The upcoming Southern Headquarters in Shenzhen, focused on high-end R&D and manufacturing, will add over 5,000 units yearly, strengthening supply chains and service networks across South China and Southeast Asia.

With this latest honor, Bodor becomes the first laser equipment brand worldwide to win the Red Dot “Best of the Best” distinction. To date, the company has received five Red Dot Awards, four iF Design Awards and international prizes, including MUSE, Good Design (U.S.), and French Design Awards.

Looking ahead, Bodor Laser stays true to its vision—technology as the foundation, design as the wings, and users at the heart. Through innovation and design integration, the company delivers laser solutions that unite functionality and beauty, driving global industry toward a new era of intelligent and aesthetic manufacturing.

INNIO Secures Record 2.3 GW Order To Power AI-Driven Data Centres

 

INNIO Secures Largest Order in Company History (c) INNIO


KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 21 (Bernama) -- INNIO Group has announced its largest power delivery order to date is a 2.3-gigawatt (GW) power infrastructure project comprising 92 power packs, each capable of generating 25 megawatts (MW).

The project, developed in collaboration with VoltaGrid, will strengthen INNIO’s position as a key energy solutions provider for the rapidly expanding data centre sector in the United States (US).

INNIO Group President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr Olaf Berlien said the order reflects the company’s technological capabilities and its role in supporting the growth of artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure.

“This landmark order underscores the strength of INNIO’s technology and our ability to power the AI revolution with smart, high-performance energy solutions,” he said in a statement.

Meanwhile, VoltaGrid CEO Nathan Ough said the partnership with INNIO represents a significant step towards building energy infrastructure for the AI era.

“Together with INNIO, we are delivering a scalable solution that combines grid-grade performance with ultra-fast response, zero battery reliance and near-zero emissions,” he said.

The project utilises INNIO’s Jenbacher technology to provide prime, backup and peak power through a single integrated platform, offering enhanced operational flexibility for data centre operations.

The system maintains full power and efficiency even in ambient temperatures of up to 50 degrees Celsius and is designed to handle rapid load fluctuations. INNIO estimates the technology to be up to 10 per cent more efficient than alternative systems, potentially saving more than US$300 million in fuel costs annually across the total installed capacity. (US$1=RM4.21)
