Summary

It's really interesting that in today's market while we're at a hotel electronic distribution conference (HEDNA) we have panels featuring executives from Airbnb and OYO Rooms.  This is a clear signal that what it means to be a hotel is changing and in the video below we speak with experts to understand evolving hotel management principles in this new world.

A special thanks to IDeaS for sponsoring the panel, find out why our community voted IDeaS the most loved company in hotel tech for 2019.

 

Key topics from the panel

1) What are the long-term (secular) changes that are happening specifically around what does it mean to be a hotel in this new world

2) We address the short-term changes (cyclical) happening in the next 12-18 months.

3) We dive into how hotels can adapt to short term market turbulence and equip themselves for long term viability and competitiveness.  

4) We explore specific tactics that hotel owners and managers can utilize so they can effectively navigate these rapidly changing market dynamics.
