HX: The Hotel Experience + BDNY
November 12, 2018
Brian Husting and Ron Javier attended HX 2018 and BDNY held concurrently at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York Nov 11-12. The two day Hotel Experience focused on Future Trends, Technology, and Operational Excellence in Hospitality.

Key takeaway's:

  • Future = Environmentally conscious hotels and health care facilities

  • Artificial intelligence is the next big thing; augmented reality has more to offer than virtual reality

  • Hotel occupancy and profitability are currently breaking previous records

  • Bring the outdoors inside with increased exposure to daylight

  • Art improves wellness

  • 23% of a hotel’s costs are lighting

  • Not a lot of growth potential in gaming
