With delegates from over 500 leading companies across the globe, the Future Hospitality Summit is set to be a melting pot of ideas and innovations, including discussions on technology and artificial intelligence. The event will cover a diverse range of topics, including ESG and human capital, projects and destinations, a focus on Europe, Africa, and Saudi Arabia, technology and innovation, branded residences, and women leadership.
As the hospitality industry continues to evolve in the face of global challenges and technological advancements, the Future Hospitality Summit stands as a testament to the sector’s resilience and forward-thinking approach.
