What Robotics Reveals About Hotel Innovation - Jeanelle Johnson & Abhi Jain, PwC
Thursday, 26 February, 2026
In this episode, Jeanelle Johnson, Managing Partner at PwC, and Abhi Jain, Partner at PwC, explore what the robotics conversation in hospitality is really about. They discuss where robotics makes practical sense today, and where human judgment and interaction remain essential. The conversation then shifts to the structural realities of the hotel business, including ownership models, incentive misalignment, and the complexity of the ecosystem that often slows technology adoption. You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of why innovation in hospitality is less about the technology itself and more about who pays, who benefits, and how alignment drives change.
