What does the Market Activation team do?
The team brings strategic leisure tourism opportunities to life. This involves the management of priority consumer-focused marketing and development projects of state-wide significance. All projects will be identified based on their ability to provide a competitive advantage and return on investment for tourism in Queensland.

What we do:

1. Pre-feasibility assessment and prioritisation: In partnership with the Tourism Queensland Project Advisory Group, the Market Activation team identifies and evaluates business opportunities in line with consumer demand and trends. Applying a set of criteria, Market Activation prioritises its strategic projects according to the best return on investment for Tourism Queensland.

2. Project Management: The Market Activation team coordinates and manages strategic priority projects across Tourism Queensland, engaging cross-organisational teams to ensure joint ownership and delivery. We employ project management principles and ensure every project has a start, middle and end.
