I personally look forward to seeing how clever hotels and restaurants will become are we move in to the voice and talk to tech generation. How will every hotel have an Alexa or Siri device and how this integrates with food ordering and more.

As passionate tech restauranteurs, we are all networking, seminar junkies and like to mingle with like-minded people. We love to learn and love to tech.

We have decided to Exhibit this year as we feel we have a lot to offer and help small businesses grow. We believe we have the business and product to get the hospitality industry booming again.
What are your top tips for exhibiting?
Our top tips are to be confident with your brand, know the brand inside out, have the passion to listen and understand your potential customer. Preparation and networking are key factors in every success. It’s an extra bonus if you can familiarise yourself with other exhibitors, in case the customer at your stall better suites one of your neighbours. This will dramatically help HRC with future events.
