Uploaded March 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago
Vision, strategies, best practices, dilemmas and inspiration towards hotels as neighbourhood hubs. To what extent do/can DERTOUR/ORASCOM and its stakeholders or competitors successfully engage with local communities; how is value created, how to ensure optimal balance, do all stakeholders benefit/contribute? How does this fit business goals, innovate business models; next steps, what is needed to move forward. What can/should others (industry, academic, …) contribute? The intention is to explore and (curiously and critically) discuss the broader theme, with DERTOUR and ORASCOM viewpoints and inspiration
