Editorial comment

 

20•01•20 Welcome to the latest ShortTermRentalz weekly newsletter!

 

• Our first event of 2020, RECHARGE, gets underway in Barcelona today as hospitality and real estate leaders prepare to take part in short and punchy debates, stimulate collective conversation and drive the sector forward.

 

Today consists of a curated experiential urban expedition around Barcelona, touring a number of ground-breaking hotel, apartment, co-working and hostel hospitality and real estate concepts, including Torre Del Governador, YAYS Sagrera, one co work and Safestay Passeig de Gràcia.

 

Meanwhile on Day Two tomorrow, I will be participating in a debate with YAYS' chief investment and development officer, Steven Smit, and T5 Strategies managing director Sean Worker, proposing the following motion: 'The hybrid master hospitality lease model maximises owner profitability more than a standard management contract'. It follows up on my previous master lease model thought leadership piece and it is sure to be an engaging and thought-provoking discussion.

 

As a preview to the event, you can read Sean's recent blog post here from ShortTermRentalz.

 

Check out the RECHARGE schedule here and we look forward to welcoming all of the attendees to Barcelona this week!
