When we hear “senior living,” we think of modest rooms, shared dining halls, and scheduled bingo nights. With communities focused on physical needs and enhancing the everyday life of older people, one could say senior living follows a standard format.
That format may have worked for residents in the past, but each generation’s needs are different.
Technology and connectivity are critical today, especially for college students. As a property manager or owner, creating spaces conducive to student living and learning and understanding how your property can impact the entire student experience will be a huge differentiator.
‘Hotels are also leveraging new tools and technology to better grow and retain their workforce’
Real estate is an extremely fast-paced industry, and if you're looking for a way to keep up, you'll need the right PropTech solutions in place.
As technology expectations from travelers rise, hotels are clamoring to upgrade the guest experience. Advances in technology have given owners and operators new AI-powered tools, personalized online booking, expansive in-room offerings, and an increasingly automated stay.
The conversation around the evolution of hospitality technology is often focused on the technologies and solutions themselves – whether it’s stock and trade offerings such as improved video and Wi-Fi or more nuanced discussions around advancements in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity.
Legacy solutions have been resilient in hospitality for a number of reasons: they are already in use, they’ve been working all this time, and it costs lots of money to replace them. However, these solutions generally lack modern features, ease of use, capabilities, and potential integrations, all of which make them obsolete in the hospitality industry, where the status quo and guest expectations have moved on.
Large-scale events have been a recurring theme in the past year. The Summer Olympics in Paris came on the heels of major international soccer tournaments in North America and Europe. In the fall, Presidential campaigns crisscrossed the country, highlighted by their respective conventions in Milwaukee and Chicago.
