Bhavin Vora: Reimagining the Future of Travel Through Traveller DNA

Bhavin Vora, Founder and CEO of TravelOne Technologies

Bhavin Vora, Founder and CEO of TravelOne Technologies (Canada), is reimagining travel around a simple truth: the same place can offer a different experience to every traveller. With two decades of leadership in enterprise technology, digital transformation and travel innovation across India, the UK and North America, Vora brings a global perspective to a human question: how can travel become more personal, relevant and meaningful?

His answer is Traveller DNA, TravelOne’s proprietary intelligence framework. It combines behavioural, preference and contextual signals to understand what a traveller seeks from a journey. Rather than asking people to search through generic options or follow recommendations driven by trends, Vora believes travel should start with understanding each traveller’s unique Traveller DNA.

By combining AI, behavioural insight and commercial discipline, Vora is contributing to the evolution of predictive travel intelligence enabled by AI, creating a more intuitive, personalised and meaningful next generation of travel experiences. For more information, visit:  traveloneglobal.com

Lakshana Asthana & Manoviraj Singh | Co-Founders, House of Tarq

Lakshana Asthana and Manoviraj Singh are building House of Tarq around a provocative idea: that Corporate Social Responsibility can create measurable returns not only for communities, but also for businesses, institutions and wider ecosystems.

Within its first 10 Months, The House of Tarq has crossed ₹40 crores in CSR value while collectively assessing and managing programmes and portfolios exceeding ₹110 crores across 15 Indian states.

The founders’ approach brings together three functions that have traditionally operated independently - CSR Strategy, CSR Solutions (under Tarq Foundation) and CSR Story - under one single architecture. Their portfolio spans infrastructure, health, public awareness, education, climate, and livelihoods, with organisations including DIAGEO India, Colgate-Palmolive India, Lenovo, ABInBev, Motorola, Signify, Vertis and Arvind Ltd to name a few.

For Asthana and Singh, however, scale is only one part of the ambition. Their larger thesis is to move CSR from a compliance-led mandate towards what they call Corporate Social Returns - applying greater strategic discipline to how social investments are designed, executed, measured and communicated. By combining corporate thinking with implementation depth, the duo is redefining what lasting business impact through CSR can look like.
