  • 10minhotel.com
  • 28 September 2026
💻 In Southeast Asia, APAC, the Middle East, and Africa, hotel groups are eager to adopt AI. Early adopters report enhanced revenue, bookings, productivity, and cost control. However, many lack the infrastructure to fully implement AI across multiple properties. The key lies in having robust data integrity and a unified cloud-based management system. Hotelogix, serving 12,000+ hotels worldwide, emphasizes API-first platforms to ensure seamless data flow, scalability, and compliance. Notably, Hotelogix supported 50,000+ rooms during FIFA 2022 in Qatar.

At a Skift event, he emphasized a visual, comparative travel experience, not limited to chatbots. Two AI strategies exist: one where personal AI agents dominate discovery and booking, and one where platforms remain central.
