Campbell Wilson, the new CEO of Air India, officially took charge of the airline in July after the security clearance from the government (he was CEO-designate since 12th May and was awaiting security clearance required for the job). Now, as per a latest update; the airline has invested in a new tech to counter competition. This new tech investment by Air India seems to be a part of a robust marketing strategy to stay afloat and well ahead of the business – much-needed in an industry that is still recovering from the impact of COVID.
