On this episode of A Move In The Light Direction, a podcast by Surfacide UV Technology, host Daniel Litwin talked with Wendy Walling, Director of Global Marketing at Intellego Technologies, and Jeff Veenhuis, President and CEO, Surfacide Manufacturing.

The trio spoke about trends in summer travels as the U.S. meets new highs in travel demand and how these will impact safety expectations for brick-and-mortar locations. Overall, travel demand has increased for the summer, which is good news for the travel industry.

As the European Union recommends the return of non-essential travel for U.S. passengers to boost their economy, the U.S. itself is seeing travel numbers similar to 2019, which was an excellent year for travel.

We recently crossed 2 million passengers crossing check-in thresholds in a single day, the TSA reported. Venues across the country are also seeing high traffic again, which also impacts the hospitality industry, but safety expectations have changed due to COVID.

“Whether it’s travel or hotels, consumers are really looking for safety protocols,” Walling said. “They want to see it in the policy and in the practice. They want to see evidence of it. The brands I think are going to do well and manage the influx of travel again are the ones prepared to handle that.”

However, not everything is so peachy in the travel industry, as the world-shaking effect of COVID-19 lingers on with new variants. These could potentially lead to more restrictions on travelers and even more expectations for health and well-being.

SCI recruits funeral sales as the career AI cannot replace

SCI recruits funeral sales as the career AI cannot replace

SCI's recruiting video positions funeral and cremation sales as a career resistant to automation by emphasizing the human trust required in end-of-life planning. The pitch frames the role as requiring both compassion and sales drive, targets people outside the industry, and leans on demographic demand from an aging population to argue for job stability.

  • 01More than 11,000 Americans turn 65 daily, SCI says demand will grow.
  • 02SCI seeks candidates with dual traits: compassion and empathy alongside sales-oriented drive and tenacity.
  • 03The role requires no prior industry experience; SCI provides training, coaching, and technology to prepare newcomers.

CURORI Details Readiness Framework for Planned Ten-City Expansion in China

CURORI, a China-based medical-aesthetic coordination platform founded in 2025, has outlined a readiness framework to expand its city coverage from five to ten Chinese destinations by the end of 2027. The expansion will be phased around provider and service readiness rather than destination count alone, with review areas including qualified doctors, licensed institutions, procedure categories, communication processes, and practical factors for international users.

  • 01CURORI plans to expand from five currently served cities (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou) to ten by December 31, 2027, with Chengdu, Xi'an, Wuhan, and two additional locations under evaluation.
  • 02The company's readiness framework requires operational checks across provider qualifications, licensed institutions, procedure availability, assessment requirements, communication processes, quotation clarity, appointment coordination, and follow-up arrangements before launching in new cities.
  • 03CURORI has a separate objective to help reduce client costs by approximately 10% by the end of 2026 through comparison, clearer quotation information, free initial coordination, and future incentives.

Some hospice clients saw ADC climb 50% in 18 to 36 months. Expanding beyond hospice is the biggest driver, and the payoff takes years.

  • 01Service diversification beyond hospice care is one of three common rebrand triggers, so the name often trails a business that has already changed.
