520 Learn blockchain in a simple, non-tech way and explore the
different emerging technologies that open a world of
opportunities in the space of tourism and hospitality.
This book showcases examples of blockchain-based solutions
implemented in different industries and connects them to
use cases in hospitality and tourism (disintermediation,
payments, loyalty programs, supply chain management,
identity management etc.). Blockchain is one of the
disruptive technologies that lays foundations for Web3.0,
NFTs, Metaverse and other innovations. Despite many
benefits, its adoption in the hospitality industry is very
slow. Lack of awareness and connection to clear return-on-
investment, coupled with many misconceptions and general
perception of complexity is one of the main reasons why
hospitality managers are reluctant to embark on the
blockchain train. Blockchain for Hospitality and Tourism
serves as a practical guide to the world of innovations,
from the basics of blockchain to "how to start a project"
with brief explanations of different technologies and
capabilities. You'll review NFTs and Metaverse, along with
current developments, tools, and platforms. After reading
this book, you'll be equipped with enough knowledge to
make strategic business decisions and able to discuss
these topics within your organization and with vendors and
suppliers in a comfortable way. As blockchain enters the
next phase of its evolution, with more user-friendly
interfaces and interoperability, see how it opens a world
of opportunities in the space of tourism and hospitality.
