The Travel Technology Association has launched the "Passport Podcast," hosted by president and CEO Laura Chadwick.
Each episode of the monthly podcast will feature a guest from the industry. Together, Chadwick and her guests "will explore the top news stories at the intersection of travel, technology and public policy," Travel Tech said.
The podcast was designed as a companion to the association's weekly Passport Newsletter.
In the first episode of the podcast, Chadwick was joined by Brandon Palumbo, Travel Tech's director of policy and government regulations. The two talk about the Trump administration and what impacts it might have on travel technology. Specifically, they discuss AI regulation, antitrust enforcement and airline competition.
April's episode will feature Carroll Rheem, founder and CEO of Iolite Group and Phocuswright's former director of research.
"Every month, I'll be joined by an industry expert to discuss how larger debates on policy and beyond could impact the travel tech industry," Chadwick said. "Together, we will help our listeners understand what is happening in Washington and state houses across the country and what it means for their companies."
