Angie’s Michael Vargosko to join other hospitality industry thought leaders in panel discussion on the state of hotel technology and what the future holds

SYDNEY – July 10, 2018 – Angie Hospitality, developer of the world’s first enterprise-class, cloud-managed interactive guest room assistant, built specifically for the hospitality environment, announces that its Head of Global Sales, Michael Vargosko, will participate in a “Tech Panel” educational session at the NoVacancy Accommodation Expo, taking place July 17th and 18th at the ICC Sydney Exhibition Centre in Australia.

The presentation, entitled “What’s New, What’s Hot, What’s Coming,” will take place at Seminar Theatre B at the Expo on Tuesday July 17th at 3:30 p.m. local time. In this session, Vargosko will join a panel of fellow industry technologists, innovators and hoteliers as they engage in an open discussion about what’s trending in hotel technology and what the next five years of innovation may look like. The panel will also explore best practices on how to integrate technology into hotel properties/organisations and how to measure ROI on technology investments.

“As traveling consumers become increasingly comfortable interacting with advanced technologies such as voice user interfaces and artificial intelligence, we believe that the hotel industry will adopt these solutions more and more in order to improve guest satisfaction and operations efficiencies,” said Vargosko. “The future of the industry will be dictated by guest demand for convenient self-service options, as well as technologies that help to streamline operations.”

Angie Hospitality designs and develops Angie, a 24-hour purpose-built voice-activated solution that meets the needs of guests and hotel staff. Angie features personalized and secure in-room Wi-Fi connectivity, telephony, room controls and access to onsite amenities and information that guests and staff can access via voice or through the high-resolution touch screen.

In addition to participating in the tech panel discussion, Angie Hospitality will officially launch its state-of-the-art solution to the Australian market as part of its global expansion during the two-day NoVacancy Accommodation Business Expo trade event. The largest event for hotel and accommodation professionals in the region, NoVacancy is a free-to-attend event with 2000+ accommodation professionals expected over the two days.
