The Market Your Property Is Missing
Global LGBTQIAN+ tourism market value in 2025
Annual compound growth rate — outpacing overall leisure travel
LGBTQIAN+ travelers actively choose properties with visible inclusive policies
LGBTQIAN+ travelers spend more per trip, travel more frequently, and demonstrate measurably higher brand loyalty to properties that visibly demonstrate inclusive practice. They do not assume — they look for evidence.
Thailand is positioned at the center of this opportunity. Southeast Asia's LGBTQIAN+ tourism corridor is developing rapidly, and properties that establish certified inclusive standards now will define the benchmark for the region.
Proud Mark exists to make that evidence verifiable — for travelers, for investors, and for the organizations that are ready to lead.
