Airbnb partners with Brazil virus hotspot Sao Paulo to revive tourism
Home rental firm Airbnb struck a partnership with Brazil's Sao Paulo state to encourage tourism once the novel coronavirus crisis has passed, a company executive said on Friday.
Virus hotspot Sao Paulo is the first destination in Latin America chosen by Airbnb as part of a global push to revive its business as authorities ease coronavirus-related restrictions on tourism.
"Sao Paulo state is at the core of our Brazil strategy and originates many travelers," Airbnb's director of governmental and institutional relations for Latin America, Flvia Matos, told Reuters in an interview on Friday.
Airbnb will have an exclusive page on Sao Paulo state's destinations in its platform and will also share with the local government data and information on what is happening elsewhere in the globe.
