GUESTROOM 20X Educates Hospitality Professionals in Hong Kong
AUSTIN, "For the past three years
GUESTROOM 20X has traveled around the world educating the hospitality
industry on the potential for future guestroom technology," said
Sieburgh. "I think conference attendees will find great value in the
presentation, which reflects a thorough accumulation of research and
feedback the GUESTROOM 20X Task Force has collected since the exhibit
was conceived." The Technology Forum is
designed for senior-level professionals in clubs, hotels, resorts and
other hospitality-related businesses. It features a mix of panels and
individual presentations covering a wide spectrum of hospitality
technology issues like IT trends in F&B, going green with
technology, planning for NextGEN technologies and more. GUESTROOM 20X is a
futuristic guestroom featuring the latest and near-future technologies
for the modern hotel room. The exhibit debuted at the 2006 Hospitality
Industry Technology Exhibition and Conference (HITEC®) and has been
on display at various trade shows since. After many requests to
show GUESTROOM 20X, HFTP created a portable presentation detailing
the room’s technologies that can easily travel to the
global hospitality community. Technologies in the exhibit include
non-traditional types such as lighting, eco-friendly products, fabrics
and furniture, as well as traditional technology such as
next-generation televisions, telephones and robots. The next version of
GUESTROOM 20X debuts at HITEC 2010 in For more information about GUESTROOM 20X, visit www.guestroom20x.org or contact the HFTP Meetings & Special Events Department at [email protected], (800) 646-4387 or +1 (512) 249-5333.
