July 16, 2024

TECHNOLOGY IS REVOLUTIONIZING EVENT HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS

The esports arena, once the province of intimate gatherings, has exploded into massive spectacles that draw comparisons to the Super Bowl, fueled by a passionate gaming community and the streaming powerhouses of Twitch and YouTube Gaming. As these in-person esports events scale up, with attendance figures soaring to unprecedented heights, the backend of these events—especially hotel room block management for events (a.k.a. event housing management)—faces a complexity that demands a radical overhaul.

THINKING HOTEL STAYS IN THE ESPORTS BOOM

Esports events are dynamic beasts: a melting pot of global participants with unique digital needs—from lightning-fast internet to custom gaming setups. Traditional methods, cumbersome and manual, buckle under the pressure of such diverse and demanding requirements. The old spreadsheet and phone call system?
