Travel is one sector where developments enabled by technology can be seen to have a significant impact on a daily basis, and the first ever WIRED x TUMI Innovation in Travel Awards recognise that. With close to 4,500 votes cast by the readers of WIRED, these awards are part of a wider cross media partnership that encompasses print, online, mobile, social media and in-store promotion.
