Tourism has already played a significant role not only in helping people to know about each other. It has also affected the cultural, social, political and economic values all over the world. Thus, in a tech-savvy world, innovations like Artificial Intelligence and Big Data can make tourism a responsible sector. This, when combined with connectivity at global lever can ensure sustainable growth.

Talking about the tourism of India, it is interesting to note that the Indian tourism is crucial for the economy of the country and is growing rapidly. The calculations made by the World Travel and Tourism Council indicated that tourism generated 15.24 lakh crore and supported 41.622 million jobs in 2017. It is anticipated that the sector will see a boom at an annual rate of 6.9% to Rs. 32.05 lakh crore by 2028.

The estimated worth of the Indian medical tourism in October 2015 was around US$3 billion. It is predicted to grow to US$7-8 billion by 2020. The year 2014 witnessed the arrival of 184,298 foreign patients in India to seek medical treatment.

Tamil Nadu was up on the charts of the most visited tourist destinations in 2014 with over 4.6 million foreign and 320 million Indian travelers. The state holds great architectural and historical significance. Ministry of Tourism in collaboration with the state government promotes tourism in the state with a logo ‘Enchanting Tamil Nadu’.

Various events and functions are organized by TTDC to boost tourism in the state. Surprisingly, The New York Times has listed Chennai, the capital city of Tamil Nadu, amongst the top 52 destinations to visit in the world. Fondly known as the “Gateway to South India’, Chennai is a home to Marina Beach, ancient temples and beautiful parks.

The semi-finalists of the UNWTO Tourism Startup Competition 2021, which is being held for the first time, will also be announced on 27th September 2021.
