Meet Our Content Council

HTF Content Council members are innovative hotel operators, consultants, and academics who help shape Hotel Technology's hotel and lodging tech content strategy. The council meets throughout the year—both in personal and virtually—to brainstorm hot topics and guide the agenda for Hotel Technology Forum, as well as inform ongoing editorial coverage across HT channels.
