Philoxenia Conference

Philoxenia–Hotelia 2025, celebrating its 40th edition, enters a new era by embracing the technological pulse of the tourism world. Digitalization, artificial intelligence, big data and smart applications are redefining the traveler’s experience, reshaping business operations, and redesigning destination promotion strategies.

During this year’s Philoxenia–Hotelia conference, tourism meets innovation and technology!
Representatives from the tourism and technology ecosystems will discuss developments in the digital transformation of hospitality and tourist destinations.

Through four thematic sections – focusing on the institutional framework, new technologies in hospitality and “smart” cities – best practices, innovative solutions, and strategic pathways are presented for transitioning toward a more sustainable, personalized and technologically advanced model of tourism development.

The conference is addressed to tourism professionals, institutional representatives, technology providers, startups, and the wider exhibition audience interested in the prospects of the tourism sector.
