#32 Revenue Management meets Marketing
Any revenue management nerds and at the same time marketing experts out there? 👀
Yes? Great!
So, this episode is for you and all the hoteliers hoteliers!
On our CoCoBe Main Stage, Tini, Sophie, Deniel and Pontus discuss revenue management meets marketing and answer if that combo is the new dream team. There is hardly any other industry with such a lack of employees as the hospitality industry, which is why our experts are going into the question “can one person do revenue management and marketing at the same time?
The next 30 minutes are packed with exciting discussions and interesting questions from the audience.

#31 How to Combine the Physical and Digital Guest Journey
Let’s face it: we all love learning new things.
But most of all, we love to be inspired by learnings from other industries. And why not? Why shouldn’t learnings from other industries be possible in the hospitality industry, in a modified form?
Marion from Student Hotel Berlin was asked a lot of expert questions about all things digitization in the hospitality industry and, of course, answered them.
How important is it to improve the digital visibility of a hotel, how can we make the best of existing, physical features?
And of course, when we have a hotelier sitting next to Daniel, we don’t just ask what’s possible, we ask most importantly: what have you already implemented and how has it changed the concept and guest experience of The Student Hotel?
So enjoy this HIC Hotelcast episode, live from our CoCoBe in Berlin. Powered by Allseated.
#30 A Hoteliers Perspective: How do I select my Tech Stack?
#29 Hotel Operations 2022
#28 New Investments: How is the industry changing?
What do you think of when you hear the word “investment”?
We all had a similar, yet somehow different idea in our heads. So we invited Julius Anders to join our podcast and talk about just that.
Julius reveals what he has planned with his current 45 million euro investment with numa, what opportunities, possibilities and what risks there are for hoteliers in the current times.
The episode has so much input that it doesn’t even fit into this caption! So… go right ahead and tune in!

#27 NFTs & Metaverse in der Hotellerie
“NFTs & Metaverse”..Warte, was?
Egal ob Gen Z oder Boomer, NFTs und Metaverse sind alles andere als cringe Jugendsprache: Diese Begriffe werden immer wichtiger für uns und für die Hospitality Industry.
Und alle, die jetzt überlegen ob sie sich unsere neueste Episode überhaupt anhören sollen, wenn sie doch den letzten Satz schon nicht verstanden haben… Keine Sorge, mir geht es ähnlich. Und genau deshalb haben wir Feray von Allseated in unser Kölner Podcaststudio eingeladen: Damit er etwas Licht ins Dunkel bringt und ausführlich aufklärt, was NFTs und Metaverse sind. Und vor allem auch wieso sie in unserer Branche immer wichtiger werden.
Viel Spaß bei dieser HIC Hotelcast Episode, powered by Allseated.
#26 The meeting room of the future
Previous episode the city hotel of the future, now the meeting room of the future.
Coincidence? We’ll never know…
Today’s episode is not only for our MICE-nerds out there, but for everyone who is even slightly involved with having meeting as their daily business.
Fun fact: There are a lot of them. 😉
Live from our CoCoCoCo in Cologne, our hospitality tech experts get together and talk about the increasing demand for new types of meeting rooms as a workspace or for events. They discuss the main challenges that come with this demand and how companies cope with it and come up with new solutions that are here to stay.
Future, here we come!
Dear Anna, Sabine, Linda, and Wilko, have fun with our host Daniel on our CoCoCoCo Main Stage, powered by Duetto!
#25 The city hotel of the future: What to do when business travel gets less?
The city hotel of the future. Uff. Wow.
Honestly… 2022 sounded at least as crazy in the 90s as “the city hotel of the future” does today. Or is it just us?
Pretty sure we’re not alone with this thought. That’s why we have three top-notch experts from our industry sitting here alongside our awesome host Alex to discuss this exact topic. Hoteliers and tech providers talk about challenges of new ways of working and the resulting decline in business travel.
Felizitas, Neha, Philip, we’re really excited to hear your proposed solutions for the City Hotel of the Future.

#23 New Work Models within Hospitality Industry
In one of our previous Hotelcast episodes, we already looked at, how technology can help, close the talent gap in our industry.
But shouldn’t we look beyond this, and analyze how companies in other industries attract and keep the most talented people?
How do modern hospitality organizations approach this issue, how can we find new talents, even without a background in hospitality, and how can we motivate people to become and stay part of our industry?
This panel will discuss approaches, incentives, modern on-the-job and health care training for our most valuable asset in the industry, our employees.
Our amazing host Liza digs into all these questions and leads an exciting Panel together with our experts Svenja, Alexandra, Daniel, Dorian and Philip.
Guys, we hope you enjoy this panel of our CoCoCoCo Main Stage, powered by Duetto. Have fun!
#22 Female Empowerment within Hospitality Industry
Would the world be a better place if there were more women in leadership positions?
Since the greater part of people working within the hospitality industry are women, they feel quite underrepresented not only on the conference stages, but also in leadership positions.
This panel will discuss strategies to overcome this inequality and help position all those women who are not only talented, but also skilled and experienced.
We can’t emphasize enough the importance of this topic and invited some of the most influential and talented women in the industry to our CoCoCoCo Main Stage, to speak out and raise their voices.
Ladies, now have fun on our Main Stage, powered by Duetto!
#21 PANEL – Ausbildung und die Neuordnung der Berufe
Vor knapp zwei Wochen haben wir bereits mit Sascha Dalig, Experte in Sachen Education innerhalb der besten Branche ever, über Ausbildungen und die Neuordnung der Berufe gesprochen. Und warum gibts heute dann die nächste Folge zum Thema?
Ganz klar!
Das Gespräch mit Sascha war vorbereitend auf das jetzt folgende Panel.
Eine Diskussion live von unserer CoCoBe aus Berlin, bis oben hin vollgestopft mit Fragen an unsere Expert:innen:
Wie sollte die Förderung junger Talente innerhalb der Hotellerie und Gastronomie aussehen? Was müssen wir tun, um den Nachwuchs generell zu fördern? Welche Ausbildungsmöglichkeiten bieten wir an? Wo brauchen wir Anpassungen? Und schließlich: Wie kann jeder von uns dazu beitragen, gute Talente zu bekommen?
Die Antworten liefern unsere Panelists und unser Moderator Philip Ibrahim, General Manager des The Student Hotel Berlin.

#16 The Big Tech Bang: We can’t stop progress, but we can design it
You might think the title of this HIC Hotelcast episode “The Big Tech Bang” sounds a bit dramatic?
Well, as Felix said: “We can’t stop progress, but we can design it.”
Is our CoCoCoCo keynote speaker Felix Holzapfel right about this?
Everyone who read his book “Catch42 – A novel about our future” might agree instantaneously and I obviously got on the nerves of my entire team to read it. But hey, someone’s gotta do the job, right?
The next 15 minutes couldn’t be more exciting for me personally with Felix going at the ever-changing scientific and technological advances happening around us.
Get ready for a knitty gritty keynote sucking Felix’ brain about how our world will look like in the near future,… or not.
Let’s go Mr Triathlon, the Main Stage, powered by Duetto, is yours!

#14 Hotel Websites: Wie Conversion optimierte Arrangements den Verkauf stärken
Conversion optimierte Arrangements im Buchungsprozess auf Hotel Websites. Puhhh.
Der bisher längste Titel in unserer, zugegeben, noch nicht allzu langen HIC Hotelcast Geschichte. Auch wenn der Titel jetzt nicht suuuuper sexy klingt, hat die Folge es in sich:
Ronald spricht auf unserer CoCoCoCo Talk Stage, powered by Hotelbird, über die wichtigsten Aspekte, um den Verkauf über die eigene Hotel Website zu stärken. Und wer jetzt denkt „Wie, das wars schon?“, keine Sorge, das war es natürlich noch nicht.

#10 E-Mobility: How to Profit From New Mobility Concepts
Huh? Still haven’t had enough of sustainability? Perfeeeect! We actually feel the same.
Fortunately, we covered this topic in great detail during our last CoCoCoCo conference.
E-mobility somehow still sounds kind of futuristic? Well, we already clarified in one of our first episodes that the flying cars from “Back to the Future” still do not exist. What a bummer!
And in all honesty: The idea to create new mobility concepts with e-mobility and PROFIT from them also sounds futuristic, but it isn’t.
#9 Climate Re-Shaping: Corporate Lodging and Their Impact on the Hotel Industry
Well don’t be afraid, we didn’t invite Greta nor Donald, so we’re not going to extremes here, but climate change affects us all, and impacts many aspects of our day-to-day lives. And our industry is not only affected, but at least partially responsible for it.
The good news:
In the next 30 minutes, Martin Biermann from HRS will walk us through handpicked examples on our Main Stage, powered by Duetto, of how all of us, but also the really huge companies, can help to fight climate change. Let’s do this, together.
