Dimple Jethani talks AI, data, and technology in hospitality

In this week’s episode of Hotel Moment, Dimple Jethani, Chief Information Officer of Aramark Destinations, joins Revinate CMO Karen Stephens with a sobering approach to navigating technology in hospitality as hoteliers ask themselves, “What do I want to know about my guests?”

Dimple helps hoteliers identify their baseline needs to operate with a successful tech stack, which includes investing in the right systems to extract the right guest data. As hoteliers become more in touch with the value of their data and the security risks against it, Dimple also offers suggestions on how to increase cybersecurity at the property level by educating staff on safe data management practices.

Tune in for an all-encompassing conversation on technology in hospitality, the future of AI and its impact on hoteliers’ bottom line, and what you can do to get the most out of your guest data.
