Indianapolis, IN – The HOTEL Yearbook TECHNOLOGY 2025, our highly anticipated annual industry publication, has officially launched today at HITEC Indianapolis, the world’s largest hospitality technology event.
This year’s edition, titled NOW. NEXT. BEYOND., offers a unique blend of practical insights, emerging trends, and bold predictions from the industry’s leading minds. Edited by Ira Vouk, a renowned hospitality technology expert, the Yearbook brings together perspectives from global hotel brands, technology providers, consultants, and academics to answer a critical question: How can hotels harness technology to drive real, sustainable success?
Key topics include:
- The evolving role of AI and automation in hotel operations
- How the “fragmentation problem” is shaping tech investment strategies
- Guest experience and personalization in an increasingly digital world
- The rise of hybrid hospitality-tech companies and what it means for the industry’s future
The publication also features the results of the HYB Annual Tech Survey, a global survey of hoteliers, vendors, and industry experts that sheds light on tech adoption, budget trends, and the biggest frustrations facing hotels today.
We are thrilled to unveil this year’s TECHNOLOGY edition at HITEC. The HOTELYearbook is about bridging the gap between technology and real-world hospitality operations. In this edition, we dig deeper than ever to uncover what’s driving (and slowing) innovation in our industry. Editor-in-Chief Ira Vouk
