In this episode, Karthik Muralidharan explores why the real challenge in hospitality isn’t access to AI – but knowing how to use it. Drawing from his work with HotellerieSuisse, he highlights the gap between experimentation and real adoption, and explains how professionals can turn AI from a simple information tool into a powerful learning and capability‑building system. A practical conversation about upskilling, critical thinking, and preparing both individuals and organisations for a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
In Season 4, we turn our attention to the future of tourism and hospitality. Through conversations with forward‑thinking leaders, researchers, and innovators, the season explores how the industry can evolve to stay resilient, relevant, and meaningful in the face of profound economic, technological, and societal change.
In the Resilient Tourism Podcast Series, we talk with international travel and tourism experts about digital transformation and datafication. Our goal is to inspire you to take action and be part of the movement! 🎯
