hotel technology

Nima Anvar is a former scientist, a past hotelier, and a current start-up founder. After a somewhat forced science education, Nima joined his wife's family business in Grenada and learned to manage a hotel on the job before pivoting to start GuestChat, his hotel chatbot. Susan and Nima talk about finding inner peace, searching for home, and being nice.

Following the #hoteltechclinic, we speak to Stephen Burke, SVP Travel and Hospitality and co-founder for Sciant which sponsored the event. In this episode we look at the role of integrations in the hotel tech ecosystem and why open APIs is more than just a fad but an implicit part of the industry.

We explore the different types of integrations and interfaces and how this makes data that much more valuable if done right.

In a recent HospitalityNet article several hotel tech experts gave their opinions on where hoteliers should focus their attention to drive the recovery post crisis, enabling hotels to perform in a much leaner, efficient and productive way.

Broadly speaking, hoteliers are being told to focus on the following areas:

·       Robotic Process Automation (RPA)

·       Guest Messaging & Staff Collaboration Tools

·       Contactless Payment and Access Control Apps

·       Robots

·       Cloud Infrastructure

Whilst these experts’ advice is solid, hotels are still struggling to navigate the maze of solutions on offer and define a clear path to success. Practical advice and guidance is needed - so we have cherry picked some of the best solutions on the market from each of the identified categories and invited senior leaders from these companies to respond to your questions in an interactive online forum. This is an interactive Q&A Webinar on June 11 hosted by HaynesMarcoms

Speakers:

• Alan O’Riodan (Apaleo)
• Erik Tengen (Oaky)
• Michael O’Connell (Clear Chain Travel)
• Micah Estis Green (Maidbot)
• Girish Prabhu (Instio)
