About dojo.live

Download the dojo.live Media Kit

Inspired by the immersive learning style of the Japanese dojo, together we learn how organizations can adapt for the future with the latest solutions, actionable advice, and inspirational stories, directly from the people who have been there and done it – and are still doing it.

Over the past decade our video podcast has evolved into a global community of knowledge sharing with C-level leadership providing insights, trends, and lessons learned from the forefront of the Travel and Hospitality Technology sector.

Each guest has their time in the spotlight during a 30-minute segment with hosts Kimberly Lantis and America Guerrero, who are often joined by top Encora leadership and SMEs as co-hosts.

Our approach is fun and relaxed, attracting software engineers, professionals, principals, and C-level executives alike into the digital dojo with us.

Dojo.live, your gateway to driving the Travel & Hospitality industry forward!
