HVS together with our friends at Bird & Bird (lawyers), AlixPartners (restructuring specialists) and EP Business in Hospitality (publishers) are pleased to invite you to join us for our 21st webinar together on Tuesday 24 September.
Our theme will be Decrypting Data and AI in Hotels. The use of data and technology has been a constant in the hotel world in recent decades but, with the advent of generative AI and large language models, it has moved right to the top of the strategic agenda. Whilst the apparent potential for the use of data is growing exponentially, hoteliers and investors are grappling with how to drive practical benefits and create tangible value from this in the real world. In addition, the risks associated with managing and protecting data are only increasing and the regulatory environment becoming more complex. This webinar aims to help hoteliers and investors to make the most of data to create value and also to manage the associated risks.
Our guest speakers will be Olivier Abtan, managing director of AlixPartners Paris office, and Heather Catchpole, an associate with Bird & Bird in London. Together they will set the scene from both an investment and legal perspective, chaired by Chris Sheppardson of EP Business in Hospitality. This will be followed by a lively panel discussion, moderated by Russell Kett of HVS and featuring a wealth of talent from four knowledgeable hospitality sector experts:
- David Campbell, chairman of Rare Restaurants
- Joanna Kurowska, managing director UK and Ireland at IHG
- Ina Plunien, vice president at Cedar Capital Partners
- Philipp Rohweder, director of real estate at NUMA
This webinar is hosted by HVS
