Hospitality Tech Expo 2023
Hospitality Tech Expo 2023 brings together professionals from various aspects of the hospitality industry, including EPOS, online ordering, workforce management, payment solutions, digital signage, and culinary technology. It’s the ultimate gathering for hospitality innovation.
The event took place on October 10th and 11th, 2023, at the ExCeL London. It provided a unique opportunity for us to connect with partners, prospects, and share the untapped potential of micro-donations within the hospitality community.
As part of the event, Alison Hutchinson CBE, CEO at Pennies, brought her expertise to an engaging panel debate and had the honour of being a judge for the prestigious Technology of the Future Award.
Defining Next Level Data for Hospitality Merchants
Alison Hutchinson CBE played a key role in a panel discussion about the evolving role of data in hospitality. The panel discussed data availability, making data more valuable, ensuring timely access, and the value of payment data. The discussion also explored how various data owners can collaborate effectively, drawing insights from Pennies’ experiences with over 100 partners.
Alison’s contributions to the panel included discussions on:
- Balancing data privacy and responsible solutions.
- Using anonymised data for insights.
- Collaborating among data owners.
Technology of the Future Award 2023
