Abstract

With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it has become even clearer that tourism is highly dependent on technological solutions. The continuing crisis calls for institutional innovation to conceptualize resilient, agile, and flexible strategic initiatives and operations (Gretzel, 2021). Smart technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics, are creating an important driving force for travel, hospitality, and leisure (THL) during the pandemic and beyond, paving the way for new business models, new customer touchpoints, and new value (co-)creation opportunities. These technologies facilitate human experiences, support critical business processes, and enable important governance aspects.
