From 2022 to 2023, the Pafos Regional Board of Tourism in Cyprus used AI and traveler intent data to implement multi-channel marketing solutions aimed at driving direct demand. This digital campaign targeted potential travelers based on their travel intentions, interests, behaviors, and locations. Using video ads for awareness and display ads for engagement, the campaign reached users at different stages of their travel planning process. Funded by the EU’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program, this initiative effectively boosted tourism by engaging users more precisely and effectively.
