WIT Hospitality 2018
Theme: BETTER HOSPITALITY

INNOVATIONS

On 20 March, Hotel ICON will play host to the WIT Hospitality 2018 Conference with the theme "Better Hospitality." On the roster of distinguished speakers is Patrick Sin, Hotel ICON's Director of Sales, Marketing & Revenue Management, who will speak on a panel focusing on Better Distribution, Pricing & Revenue Management. We are also proud to announce that Nicole Siah from our Rooms and Guest Experience team will be speaking on the topic of Leaders of the Future on 19 March. Nicole will discuss her experience thus far at Hotel ICON and what the next generation is looking for in the workplace.

In its 13th year, WIT kicks off a new cycle in 2018, to build the road to Better Travel, with a focus on Better Hospitality – for there is no other sector that’s more integral to the making of Better Travel.
 

About "Better Hospitality":

 
Better Hospitality means making accommodation choices discoverable and accessible to customers, whichever channel they are using; it means offering the right customer with the right product at the right price; it means creating experiences that are friction-free and memorable; and it means using the right technology to enable all that to happen.
 
It means getting all those who offer hospitality – be it traditional, alternative or private; chain or independent – on the same page to fulfil the bigger purpose of Better Travel.
 
For in a divided world, one thing remains constant – travel is the unifier of humanity. Powered by smart technology, it wields great power to restore balance to a divided world.
 

 

Why attend:

  • Get an in-depth understanding of how hospitality is changing, and what new trends, technologies, businesses and ideas are driving that change.
  • Take a snapshot look at how Chinese, Japanese and South Korean travel markets are taking the lead in their own respective ways.
  • Hear from a heady mix of industry leaders, entrepreneurs about how they intend to make the hospitality industry better.
  • Learn lessons taken from beyond travel and understand how they can be applied to your business.
  • Network with like-minded professionals and new players with fresh perspectives in travel.

WIT Future Leaders Forum 2018

 

In conjunction with WIT Hospitality 2018, an inaugural forum, held in The Murray Hong Kong, a Niccolo Hotel, will aim at executives under 35, and discuss on inspiring and coaching talent to build better careers in the hospitality and travel industry.

 

It will feature industry leaders and coaches who will share insights on the latest trends and issues impacting travel, and spark ideas and offer tips on how to remain relevant in your careers, with lots of time for coaching and brainstorming activity in between.
