East Coast Chapter
Luxury home-sharing, branded residences, and fractional ownership are not new, but what was once limited to the elite, is now plentiful, accessible on any device, and bookable on demand.
East Coast Chapter
The future state of travel, with all of its unknowns, entails an unpaved path forward for the hospitality industry. This uncertainty also presents the opportunity for us to look holistically at our hotel business.
Twelve months ago, I was looking forward to 2020, dreaming and planning many trips.
The lodging industry is various shades of bad until the COVID case count is reduced.
The International Luxury Hotel Association’s NorthEast Chapter hosted a webinar on The Future of Design where they discussed how they have had to respond to the crisis in current projects and adapt with innovative solutions and technologies while placing a renewed value on vendor relationships as we all face a pandemic reality.
No doubt, this global crisis has turned our industry upside down. However, we must embrace and transform the disruption into an opportunity. In times of uncertainty, business agility provides stability and allows us to navigate the unknown. To capture growth in this current climate, businesses need to be opportunistic, agile, collaborative and innovative.
The International Luxury Hotel Association (ILHA) hosted its second in a series of timely and topical webinars, hosted by the NorthEast Chapter, with Navigating Today’s Hotel Financing & Transaction Environment.
