Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
New Tourism Ventures
Dimitri Tassiopoulos · 2008
60/100
👎 Skip It
Tassiopoulos built a genuinely practical textbook that covers the tourism entrepreneurship lifecycle with useful case studies across multiple sub-sectors, and the fact that a second edition followed suggests real staying power in the classroom. That said, the tourism industry has been remade since 2008 by digital platforms, the pandemic, and shifting travel patterns, which means significant portions are now obsolete. Students assigned it should supplement with current industry sources.
