In this episode, we’re joined by a hospitality tech powerhouse: Robert Dawson, Chief Strategist and Product Officer at IRECKONU.
Robert shares his journey from front desk college job to C-suite, how he fell in love with the hotel industry, and why solving fragmented data problems became his mission. We talk all things AI, automation, data management, and CRM evolution — and what’s making waves at HITEC this year.
We talk about:
- Why the entrepreneurial section at HITEC is the place to be
- The real opportunities (and limits) of AI in hospitality
- What IRECKONU is doing to turn data into real guest engagement
