Look forward to a number of innovative initiatives and partnerships that are going to shake up the hospitality industry when FHA-HoReCa, Asia’s most comprehensive and premier hospitality event, returns from 22–25 October 2024.
A relationship with Foodservice Technology (FSTEC), the premier foodservice technology event in the world, as well as WorldChefs, which will host Singapore’s first-ever Global Chefs Challenge Finals, are among them.
FHA-HoReCa pioneers relationships with industry experts on technology solutions and talent recognition across the best of the hotel and culinary scene to cover all bases in order to fulfill the growing demands of the hospitality and culinary industries. They are an integral component of FHA-HoReCa’s plans to advance both Singapore’s domestic and international hospitality industries by bringing the most cutting-edge options and solutions there.
The FHA-HoReCa trade show is the largest international trade fair in Asia, showcasing five essential industries on a single platform: bakery, pastry & gelato; foodservice & hospitality equipment; hospitality style; hospitality technology; and specialty coffee. Over 40,000 catering and hotel industry experts travel from all over the world for this event.
FSTEC Asia’s debut: “Where Hospitality and Technology Connect”
The premier foodservice technology event in the world, FSTEC, is excited to announce its most recent collaboration with FHA-HoReCa for the launch of FSTEC Asia, its first edition.
FSTEC Asia will be seamlessly integrated into the biannual FHA-HoReCa tradeshow, offering two full days of programming with expert speakers from all over the world from October 22–25, 2024, at the Singapore Expo, setting the stage for groundbreaking discussions and innovations at the intersection of hospitality and technology.
The slogan for FSTEC Asia, “Where Hospitality and Tech Connect,” represents a strategic progression from the slogan for the US event, “Where Restaurants and Tech Connect,” and it reflects how the hospitality sector is changing while also incorporating a wider range of technology-driven opportunities and solutions.
The conference will feature talks on all aspects of hospitality technology, including ordering and payment, loyalty programs, workforce management systems, AI, and robotics, according to Chris Keating, Head of FSTEC. There will be something there for both the huge, international restaurant chain and the developing concept, as well as for the vendors and systems integrators who will support operators in achieving their objectives.
The flagship event for FSTEC Asia in the US, FSTEC, has grown significantly over the past three years, drawing over 800 executives from top restaurant firms looking for technical solutions to improve their operations.
