The ongoing Future Hospitality Summit (FHS) KSA in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia is witnessing global leaders debate the pressing topics for the industry today and the role of innovation in the hospitality space.

“Collaboratively setting new industry benchmarks, creating destinations that seamlessly integrate innovation within mixed-use projects, with the aim to empower the localness and deliver value to investors, will be crucial for the market rebound and the recovery of hospitality,” said Marloes Knippenberg, CEO of Kerten Hospitality, a global hospitality group and one of the speakers at on the panel.

Knippenberg will focus on the roadmap for disruptive brands that look at flexible space models as monetizeable assets with the lifecycle of projects in mind.

Knippenberg said:  “Mixed-use projects with different components that offer innovative hubs for work-play-sleep and eat within lifestyle destinations. Redefining the changes of how people choose to live, work, socialise and meet to collaborate will propel a Rethink of commercial and residential spaces that combine multiple components within a larger ecosystem.

“Looking at short and long-term stay complemented by a working space, health and wellness options, retail as well as Food and Beverage will be essential for the recovery of our industry that continues to battle the storm on way to recovery.”
