The tourism industry is building stronger and stronger ties with the technology industry, with a multitude of high-tech solutions being activated not only for the pleasure of the modern traveler but also for the benefit of tourism businesses. The above could easily be seen by the visitor of the hotel exhibition Xenia 2023, which took place last weekend at the Metropolitan, and especially by everyone who visited the imposing and particularly welcoming Globalsat booth.
In the context of digital and green transformation and sustainability, Globalsat, one of the fastest growing companies in the Greek market, which plays a leading role in the distribution and management of leading technology brands, introduced technological solutions and automation as well as green energy upgrade plans to Greek hotel entrepreneurs for their accommodations.
