Geopolitical shifts, climate change, evolving guest expectations: international tourism is changing rapidly. For the hotel industry, the priority now is to identify developments early and act strategically. Put simply, there is a clear need to talk.

Sometimes, the best answers to the challenges facing the hospitality industry lie outside the sector itself. This is exactly where Markus Milz comes in. The highly sought-after coach will open the QR "Redebedarf" event on 22 October 2026 with a keynote speech. He brings a dual perspective to the stage.

For many hotel guests, smartphones, tablets and laptops are an essential part of their travel kit.

Stylish and long-lasting hotel interiors are created through design concepts that stand the test of time. Timeless design is particularly valuable for permanently visible elements such as switches and sockets.

Pical Resort 5*, Valamar Collection in Poreč, the most significant tourism investment in Croatia in recent years, was recently officially opened in the presence of the Prime Minister of the Republic of Croatia, Andrej Plenković and hundreds of distinguished guests from the business and public sectors.

The hospitality industry must also protect itself against Greenwashing. With the "EmpCo" directive, the EU is also forcing hotels to stop making misleading sustainability claims from the end of September 2026. This applies to brochures, menus, marketing and websites. Insiders from F&P will be offering practical advice in free webinars in June/July.

Valamar successfully opened the 5 Star Pical Resort in Poreč, the largest hospitality investment project in Croatia worth more than 200 million euros and offering a unique luxury family holiday experience.
