Traveltech at your fingertips!

Many of us were quite excited to return to the one or the other #hospitalityindustry trade show this year. After not having been able to go to any show, for the simple lack of them taking place, for a couple of years, this was certainly a great opportunity to learn about the latest #traveltechnology and #hotelindustry trends.

Many more of us were not able to travel to any event. To start with, it’s probably never easy to get a budget for this. Travel, accommodation, and the admission of course. And then there is the time this all takes. A day to travel there, then the event duration and a day to travel back. And being away from your desk for a week certainly won’t help with regards to your regular workload.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a possibility to learn about the latest #traveltech from the comfort of your office or home? Without a hefty price tag. Maybe even for free?

FunnelTV The Travel Tech Channel proudly presents

The Hospitality Marketplace 2022 - #justpitchit

The plan is to bring 40 #hoteltechnology vendors to pitch their latest and greatest product, innovation, feature and news to you. Streaming live on Linkedin, Facebook and Youtube on November 15&16 and 22&23. And guess what? Watching the event will be totally FREE!

Below, the agenda and the topics that will be presented during the 4 days:

REVENUE MAXIMIZATION - November 15

The number crunching nerds of once upon a time are a thing of the past. Today's revenue managers are leaders driving the entire hotel towards higher profitability.

And while yielding rates continues to be at the centre of any revenue strategy, revenue management has evolved far beyond that.

Equally evolved has the tech stack hotels use today to drive revenue maximization. Where once we had spreadsheets the focus has shifted towards powerful tools that allow working on a level of complexity previously unknown. Yet, it has never been easier or more affordable to implement such technology.

Join for day 1 of the Hospitality Marketplace 2022: Revenue Maximization on November 15? and find out which technology can help you maximize your hotel revenue.

DISTRIBUTION - November 16

Many of us will remember the days when hotel revenue managers had to manually load rates and inventory on dozens of extranets one by one.

These days have, for the most part, long gone and channel managers have simplified the process enormously.

The distribution landscape nowadays has become increasingly complex where missteps can cost you dearly. Yet. distribution tech has evolved to a point where, thanks to seamless two-way-integrations, CRS, GDS, hub and channel managers are acting nearly invisible in the background and most hoteliers will hardly ever notice that they are there. Except when it’s time for a change. And then the question is, which solution is the best for my hotel?

Join for day 2 of the Hospitality Marketplace 2022: Distribution on November 15 and find out the latest and greatest in hotel distribution tech.

DIRECT BOOKING - November 22

After each of the major economic crises since the dawn of this millennium, OTAs have emerged stronger than ever. Yet, hotels never had a better basis to increase their direct bookings than now.

A lot of amazing hotel technology emerged during the pandemic. Cost-effective, easy to implement and massively powerful.

Will your hotel continue to rely on OTAs or will you take the initiative and bring direct bookings back?

Join for day 3 of the Hospitality Marketplace 2022: Direct Bookings on November 22 and meet the best in class direct booking technology available today.

OPERATIONS & SUSTAINABILITY - November 23

After two years of drought, hotels across many markets are now facing demand like never before. And many struggle to find the necessary staff to welcome the influx of guests.

On top of that, expectations have evolved and hotels need not only provide outstanding customer service and an amazing guest experience but also need to keep the environment and sustainability in mind while doing so.

Technology is an obvious solution to this dilemma. Yet, it is extremely challenging to navigate the hotel tech jungle when everyone on property is already busy with operations.?

Where once hotels only had to worry about finding the right PMS, there are a myriad of hotel tech products and vendors that complement the PMS in improving efficiencies and taking the hotel to an entirely new level.

Join for day 4 of the Hospitality Marketplace 2022: Operations & Sustainability on November 23 and learn how technology can help you sustainably optimize your hotel operation.

So save the date and join us for the Hospitality Marketplace 2022 #justpitchit on November 15&16 and 22&23.
