How would you use data and analytics to solve everyday problems
like creating better customer experience at the airport?

Let’s hear it from Luke Halliday!


Luke Halliday is a dedicated problem solver with a driven passion
to transform technology explicitly into tangible business values.


Most recently, he has been doing it for the Australian airport
industry as the CIO of Australia Pacific Airport Corporation, the

to achieve the technological transformation in Melbourne Airport

infrastructure for any kind of business and discusses the
