Exploring What’s Next For Accommodations: The Great Merging.

Join us May 11-12 in-person in New York City, as Skift editors and research analysts consider lodging’s future with a room full of the industry’s leading minds across hospitality and short-term rentals. It will be an event to remember in this unique time across travel.

Event: Skift’s Future of Lodging Forum May 11-12, 2022 New York City

Just as the pandemic has blended our work and personal lives, as well as the virtual and physical worlds, the travel industry is going through its own convergence across hospitality, rentals, and real estate. We are calling it “The Great Merging,” and will bring together the two big sectors in travel, the hotels and short-term rentals, over two days in NYC.

Skift’s Future of Lodging Forum is the first-ever conference that addresses this Great Merging in hospitality on a single platform. Over two days in May in New York City and online, we will address the innovations happening in hotels and short-term rentals and everything in between. We’ll dive into the big questions facing both sectors, including:

  • Who are the innovators in this new Future of Lodging world?
  • What types of consumer behaviors are driving these innovations?
  • How will service change and what type of new jobs and talent will be needed?
  • What opportunities exist for investors in the sector?
  • How are the incumbents reacting to this new blended world?

What to Expect

Compelling Conversations

Sessions with the travel industry’s most influential leaders and creative minds facilitated by travel media’s best journalists.

Must-Meet Attendees
