Forte Connect #8: What will the new hospitality industry look like?

It’s no secret that the hospitality industry has been hit particularly hard by the pandemic. With public health concerns and social distancing, fewer people are traveling or dining out this summer.

How can the hospitality industry adjust and can technology play a role in that pivot?

In this episode of Forte Connect, we spoke with Amit Kolambekar, co-founder and CTO at TrackMyShuttle. TrackMyShuttle is a platform that helps hotel guests track their rides to and from their hotel from their mobile phones, allowing hotels to reshape the guest experience, increase safety, and reduce operating costs.

In the video conversation below, Amit shares how hospitality organizations, particularly hotels, are adjusting their approach now and shifting strategy for the future.

We’re joined once again by our Forte Group team: C.J. Montano, Partner and Managing Director at Forte Group, and Kiersten Lyng, Senior Account Executive, Strategic Partnerships.

The group shares their thoughts on where the hospitality industry is headed, and how organizations are transforming traditional hospitality experiences into social digital experiences.
