Market snapshot
These figures describe Vertical SaaS (9.5.11), the segment that Hospitality, Travel & Events Technology sits within. They are not figures for Hospitality, Travel & Events Technology on its own.
Not sized separately. One classification covers every software publisher, so it cannot be split between vertical and horizontal products. Vertical software is the more defensible half commercially, because a system built around one industry's workflow faces fewer competitors and far lower churn than a horizontal tool sold to everyone.
