  • "There's been an enormous amount of insecurity around the world,"
  • "I think 2023 is gonna be a busy year in terms of cyber attacks."
  • Experts warned that cyberattacks are increasing in sophistication and frequency.
  • “This is a global threat, and it calls for a global response,”
  • “This is a global threat, and it calls for a global response and enhanced and coordinated action,” Jürgen Stock, the Secretary-General of the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL),
  • “The key to winning the battle against cybercrime is, of course, to work together to make it a priority across the geopolitical fault lines.”
  • This concern has been raised particularly around critical infrastructure sectors like energy, public transportation and manufacturing. SecurityScorecard, a US cybersecurity rating and analysis firm, reported recently that 48% of critical manufacturing companies surveyed were at significant risk of a cyber breach.
  • “Vulnerabilities within the critical manufacturing sector haven’t gone unnoticed by cybercriminals either,” said Aleksandr Yampolskiy, SecurityScorecard's CEO.
  • The Forum's report also notes that the potential targets for cyberattacks are increasing. Today, targets include not only government agencies or major corporations, but largely any organization that handles consumer data—no matter how small.
  • There is no such thing as a hundred percent security. It's about resilience in the face of insecurity.”

  • As more things get connected to the internet there's just more risk. ”— Matthew Prince, Cloudflare CEO

  • The motivation behind this is similar to the motivation behind UGC – namely that consumers trust the opinions and words of their peers and people they trust (like influencers) more than brands.
  • Savvy consumers of today are far more likely to listen and believe the images and words of their fellow travellers than the well-polished marketing campaigns dreamed up by hotels!
  • hotels collaborating more with macro-influencers (like celebrities)
  • but we’ll also see more going really focused and partnering up with micro-influencers.
  • These are social media users
  • Creative and Human Storytelling
  • Consumers today want to build more of a connection with the brands they buy from, and social media is tapping into this trend by producing more and more features that allow brands to show their “real-ness”.
  • Moment Marketing

  • It’s All About Direct Bookings
  • Travellers are beginning to realise they can get better deals by booking directly with a hotel, and they are able to take back power from the OTAs to create their own, personal travel experiences.

    Among other ways that hotels in the modern are using to ensure safety and security, the article looks at cybersecurity. The author proposes that hotels' security and IT departments should work together to create a safe online environment that "prevents unwanted third parties, like hackers, from intercepting private guest data." This reiterates the significance of updating computer equipment to mitigate potential threats.

    This is a great article that explains the different ways hotels are trying to make staying at a hotel safer. They start by explaining how they have surveillance cameras placed around the hotel to help them see everything that is happening all at once. Cybersecurity protects the hotels computer systems from being hacked and having people steal all the hotels and customers information. Mobile room keys helps guests find their keys faster because they will now have it on their mobile devices. For hotels the guests safety are their top priority and they train their staff to believe in the same thing.

    Event technology is forever changing and adapting to current environments. With COVID-19, event technology will be more prevalent than ever. Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality can make the attendee feel like they are in the middle of the event while actually being far away. Facial recognition software allows for streamlining check-in, but also allows for entry to be contactless. As most events have become virtual, livestreaming is very important to bring the event into the living room of those that cannot physically attend. Event apps are becoming more and more popular in that they bring all of the event information right onto an attendee's smartphone and allows them to customize their experience. Attendees can participate from far and wide, so having the information be translated into their language increases their accessibility and inclusion. Artificial intelligence collects user data and turns it into personalized recommendations for their event experience. Games brought into an event increases audience engagement and allows for team building and friendly competition. Event planners have project management software available to them to help streamline their planning and saves them time and money by not having to manually do certain tasks.

      I was hoping there would be a chance to share this article during the semester. This article from 2016 discusses an RFID bracelet that allows the event host to collect information on the attendees - however it doesn't have to be personal data, it's more about their interests and then using this information to create a memorable experience. Interactive marketing is a dominant force in the industry. Many consumers feel as though they need to connect to a brand before they work it into their lives. Technology can aid that process along.
  • On November 2 at the 50th Annual Country Music Association Awards in Nashville, a new tech product debuted that offers a different way for planners to communicate directly with their attendees
  • Hurdl has created a wearable device that has applications at a variety of events such as festivals, sporting events, trade shows, and fund-raisers. The brains of the wristband are housed in a circular LED button called a Pixl that attaches to the wristband. Guests receive a band upon arrival at an event, and then activate it by texting the unique code associated with their band to a phone number. In response, the guest receives a text that has an opt-in privacy policy and asks a series of questions created by the event host to gather the data they want for the event.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • “The client can ask any question. 'What team are you cheering for? What’s your favorite song? How are identifying your gender?'” says Hurdl co-founder Betsy McHugh. “From that point forward, the event happens, and your wearable will light up based on your unique answers. For example, if Beyoncé wants to light up all the single ladies, or a sporting team wants to light up all the people who served in the military.”

      While the concept behind the bracelet can translate to almost any setting, the way each event using the technology is different which makes every experience unique.

  • Once the guest activates the wristband via text, the event host can communicate directly with that person. “Now that we’ve built this one-to-one communication network … you get to not only be part of the experience, you can also can get a text from the host. It could say, ‘Go to the concession stand to get a free Coke for the next 10 minutes,’ or ‘Go to the merchandise stands and you’ll get 10 percent off,” McHugh says.
  • In a trade show environment, Hurdl’s algorithm can analyze the anonymized data to help sponsors and exhibitors target messaging to specific attendees.

      rnobl005 on 16 May 18
       
      MODULE 2: Hardware and Software (Rebecca Noble) I did a deep dive into recent developments in the hospitality software world and came across this article from September of 2017. It focuses on facial recognition software and there were some really great takeaways that I thought would be beneficial to share with all of you. The software mentioned here definitely falls under Application Software. The article gives multiple examples of how facial recognition software can be utilized in the hospitality industry, specifically events and conferences. The main benefit of this from an event planner's perspective is easing the registration process which the article mentions is one of the most difficult parts of event logistics. Coming from an events background I can definitely attest to this statement. In one instance, Zenus (the software mentioned) made the check-in process run 5 times faster for attendees to uploaded their photo to the system compared to those who didn't. Thanks to this innovation, event planners can use their time more efficiently. Instead of focusing on the headache of check-in they can make sure the actual conference is running on track. The article also says that it's not as expensive as you would think. Additionally, this benefits attendees too because they can zip through registration and get right to the trade show floor or speaker they want to hear. The end of the article mentioned another application of the facial recognition software: a "smile swag" vending machine. Hampton Hotels tapped into the experiential aspect here - people were interested in getting a prize but they also wanted to see how the machine worked. What I liked about this is that it made technology fun. I noticed a lot of students in the lecture video thought that technology puts barriers into the hospitality industry because you lose the personal connection. But here software doesn't come off as cold. Hampton encouraged people to smile and in doing so hopefully g

      These are some of the benefits of incorporating the facial recognition software at a conference or event.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • speeds up the check-in process, prevents registration fraud, and adds an extra level of security to an event or conference by ensuring that the person who registered for the event is actually the person attending
  • Of the more than 250 guests that attended, most of whom were in-house corporate event planners, 126 used the facial recognition check-in, resulting in a process that was five times quicker than the barcode or QR system used at the previous year’s events.
    • rnobl005
      rnobl005 on 16 May 18
       
      Here is where the article mentions the software's impact on how much it can speed up the check-in process. Attendees don't necessarily have to participate, it's more of an additional tool. Not everyone may be a fan of this type of integration at an event but I definitely would be.
  • “insanely cost-effective” option,
  • facial recognition can drive down the costs of check-in to less than a dollar per attendee.
  • You can use a basic Android phone or an iPhone or tablet to work with the process, so you don’t have to invest a lot of money to make that work for you,” Wynant said.
    • rnobl005
      rnobl005 on 16 May 18
       
      I thought this was a really smart feature. The software works on platforms that companies already own potentially so there is little overhead financially.
  • Hampton Hotels partnered with agencyEA to create a vending machine that used facial recognition technology to dole out “smile swag.”
  • I think brands are starting to see it as having a really good opportunity to broaden what some of their goals are and engage audiences in new ways

  • ...7 more annotations...
  • This means less time wasted on search engines or social media platforms looking for things, and more time spent actually enjoying them. 
  • As more potential guests nearby start visiting your website, learning about what your resort has to offer, and becoming impressed, you will naturally be able to increase more direct bookings at your resort. 
  • Geo-targeting is a method of determining the location of a user to deliver personalized messages on their smartphone application or push notifications based on their proximity to your business.
  • Geo conquesting also creates a boundary, but instead of being around your hotel or resort, this boundary exists around your competitor or competitors.
  • Apart from using search engines like Google, smartphone applications, and sms, you can use social media to display relevant advertisements to users. If you have convinced them to follow your social media page when they connected to your Wi-Fi, you can easily target these new guests and show them what else you are offering at your venue. 
  • Beacons are devices that use Bluetooth technology and are great for understanding guest behavior as they roam around your premises.
  • For example, if your target market is travelers from South Korea, you need to know the online, social media, and smartphone usage behavior of this audience for your marketing efforts to be on point.
