#Week2 The hospitality industry, a foundation of global tourism and spare time is at a crucial point, transforming into an era of sustainability and innovation. As the world is struggling with climate change and resource depletion, the industry is forced to redescribe the exact concept of luxury and comfort, setting them into the background of ecological roles and sustainable practices. This transformative phase in hospitality is more than the adoption of energy-efficient practices and green policies. It includes a holistic re-evaluation of how hotels are designed, built, and operated, keeping sustainability at the center point of the business models and guest experiences. For example: HYB 2024 Edition is having the goal of unlocking the sustainability innovation tools by mentioning the diversity and interlinking of sustainable technologies, systems, and practices that can be merged in a holistic way that makes a more sustainable hospitality ecosystem.
