“This year we are taking an important step. We have decided to expand the scope of our partnership, not only by taking part with our own stand, but also because we believe that the way you strengthen an industry is by doing business and by training and transforming the professionals who work in the sector”, concludes Ferrinho.

According to Ferrinho, the Omnibees Academy will be WTM Latin America 2018’s vertical content sponsor and is truly committed to promoting the transformation by means of education and professional inspiration, in order to enhance the development of the Latin American tourism and hospitality industry.

The conference schedule starts on the first day of the event, April 3rd, with a talk by Omnibees’ Global COO, Paulo Salvador, from 5.30 p.m. to 6.00 p.m.

Entitled “The Future has already arrived, but has not yet been distributed,” the presentation will be made at the Inspire Theatre and will address the current challenges that technology imposes on all those working in the tourism industry. In addition, it will highlight how companies are reinventing the way to gain and retain customers by means of successful strategies of convergence between the physical world and the digital world.

On April 4th, from 3.15 p.m. to 3.45 p.m., Melanie Teixeira, Omnibees’ partner and director will give a workshop on “Success stories for high performance”, with the aim of presenting success stories in Brazil and in Latin America of those who are making a difference in the market.

Also on April 4th, from 1.45 p.m. to 2.15 p.m., the Travel Tech Theatre will be the stage for the presentation by Dolores Piñeiro, managing director and coach at the Oficina de Revenue. Under the theme “Everything You Would Like to Know about Revenue Management but Never Had the Guts to Ask,” the executive will cover the fundamental pillars of the science of Revenue Management, with the effective application of actions that make it possible to boost hotels’ revenues.

To supplement the programme, on May 5th, from 1.45 p.m. to 2.15 p.m., at the Travel Tech Theatre, the conference “5 Steps to increase your Hotel’s profitability” will be given by the Omnibees business manager Rodolfo Delphorno.

“At every edition we try to present topics that contribute to the development of tourism professionals.
