Hospitality Marketplace. #Justpitchit, on December 1-4, 2020

Four full days of no-stop networking to pick the right tech stack and understand the latest market trends.

On December 1 to 4, from 3:00 to 6:00 pm CET, 40 companies will meet online to inspire the world of hospitality and travel tech. Brave leaders, industry pioneers, innovators and rule-breakers to show hoteliers "the reason why" their offers, their products and their services are the best fits in the market.

Marketplace is the live streaming event to facilitate "meeting and matching" between travel tech and hoteliers looking for new providers. Vendors will showcase their technologies through a (rigorously live) 6-minute-elevator-pitch presentation. After the pitch, they will have six more minutes for an open Q&A session with the judges (composed of hoteliers).
