In this podcast, Haaga-Helia expert Joel Pakalén discusses with Pascal Gaudio from Primehotels about how data and human intuition combine in tomorrow’s hotel business. Pascal’s Canadian background and international hotel industry experience bring a unique perspective on how global standards and Finnish authenticity can meet.
The discussion delves into revenue intelligence thinking, where technology and data serve human decision-making. We also explore what the ‘collection not chain’ philosophy means in practice and how hotel revenue streams extend far beyond room pricing toward a holistic experience economy. The episode concludes with a visionary discussion about the future of hospitality and what travelers will truly seek in tomorrow’s hotels.
