BANGALORE, INDIA—Hotelogix will be conducting a webinar on “Green Technology—The Color of Money for Hoteliers in 2014” on April 17 at 9 a.m. PST. The webinar will be delivered by Naomi Stark along with Dr. Daniel Connolly and Dr. Sunny Kim.
With the call for green getting stronger in the industry, it is time to rethink and make responsible choices. Hoteliers across the globe are realizing that by going green not only can they contribute significantly towards their society and environment but it is also profitable. Green technology is helping hotels increase sustainability while reducing consumption and costs. From low flow faucets and toilets, to paperless newspaper delivery on iPads, energy efficient equipment, intelligent lighting and heating systems, green technology practices have made substantial impact on the bottom line revenues of hotels. Such practices go a long way in reducing a hotel’s carbon footprint and creating an environmentally friendly destination which guests love to stay in and talk about within their group.
The speakers will address how hoteliers can reach their goal of going green as well as evaluate how green their property actually is. They will also present strong arguments for moving forward in this direction and demonstrate green technologies that can increase sustainability while decreasing consumption and costs. “The current green technology trend in the hospitality industry is: fully embracing it,” Stark says. “Many have been reaping significant financial benefits for several years from their aggressive green initiatives. For those that have not as of yet fully embraced green technology, the time is now and this webinar is your next step. The facts show, green technology is not a fad, it is essential in sustaining your operation. We will help you identify what options make sense for your property.”
Stark is the President and CEO of Stark Service Solutions. She is the current former Chair of the AH&LA Technology & E-Business Committee and is involved in industry organizations and is an industry event speaker and author, including HFTP, HITEC, AH&LA, Hotel Yearbook, Hotel Executive, eHotelier and IAPPA.
