The future of hotel operations through the inevitable combination of hospitality and technology were the focus of the first Croatian hotel-tech gathering held in Zadar where the IT company Rentlio brought together leaders and professionals from the fields of hotel management, tourism and technology.

With this event, the goal is to push the topic of technology in the hotel industry to the fore, since it faces two pressing challenges - the lack of manpower and the necessary need for digitization.

At the first Rediscover, several interesting lectures were held, including one by Georg Bauser, one of the first employees and former director of international development of the American Airbnb. As part of panel discussion on digitization of the hotel industry Marko Šagi from SAOP, Ljudevit Habjanec from Monri Payments and Jozo Kosir from A'mare Hotel participated.

Digital habits and expectations and experiences imbued with technology are a necessity in the hotel industry and tourism in order to keep up with increasingly demanding guests. All this is not helped at all by the current technological solutions, which in terms of appearance and functionality are reminiscent of the past.

As part of his inspiring lecture on the needs of modern guests, Marko Mišulić, the first man of Rentlio, also presented his company's new software solution – Rentlio Pro.

"Rentlio Pro is a separate version of our software solution intended exclusively for modern hoteliers. It is not possible to satisfy the needs of today's digital guests with outdated operating technology that still prevails in hotels. We saw this as our opportunity and developed Rentlio Pro - a hotel operating system built on the latest technologies and adequate to modern times. Hoteliers are expected to provide the same or better service than yesterday in a situation of labor shortage. Without appropriate technology, this is simply not possible.", Mišulić explained.

The new edition of Rentlio Rediscover has already been announced for next year, and judging by the first reactions of the audience, it is more than obvious that hoteliers missed a gathering where technology will be at the forefront.
