From “location, location, location” to “experience, experience, experience”



The discussion on the shared economy accommodation business model focuses mainly on issues of demand/supply and declining yields, missing the larger and most important matter of the guest-host relationship.

In this session, executives from international chains will discuss how they provide unique, authentic, and personalized experiences within their properties. They will explain the role of technology to deliver those experiences, and look into how to improve the one on one relationship with guests. The session will also cover changes and challenges in revenue management and distribution.
