We’re excited to announce The PC Agency has joined forces with AudienceNet, the leading global market intelligence and data firm, to launch a pioneering travel think tank.

Our new joint venture company called Thrive will supply unrivalled insight and accurate, up-to-date travel intelligence to firms around the world, helping them navigate travel and tourism in the post-COVID-19 era.

With timely analysis and constant data feeds, bespoke reports, as well as insight from the finest experts in the sector, Thrive will offer a unique service enabling companies to develop their marketing and PR strategies using the latest analysis.

Paul Charles, CEO and founder of The PC Agency, said: “With pretty well all data relating to travel pre-Covid now being out-of-date, we sensed a unique opportunity to form a joint venture with one of the best market intelligence firms out there, AudienceNet. Their work in the music and technology sectors has been world-class and we are now bringing the same qualities to the travel sector. Thrive will offer high-level insight and expertise into how travel is changing for the better.”

David Lewis, CEO and founder of AudienceNet, said: “There was only one travel PR and brand consultancy that met our requirements for having unrivalled expertise and respect in the sector. We’re excited to be uniting our market intelligence capabilities to deliver Thrive, which will be intrinsic to so many business strategies in the future.”

The PC Agency and AudienceNet have worked on several projects before, including the successful Quash Quarantine campaign with tour operator Red Savannah in summer 2020 and the regular country Quarantine Chart which is now followed by thousands of people on social media.

The team behind Thrive includes Paul Charles, the highly-experienced former Communications Director for Virgin Atlantic and Eurostar; David Lewis, founder and CEO of AudienceNet and journalist Nick Boulos, former Travel Writer of the Year who founded travel experience company Make My Day.
