Widely recognized as a pioneer in applying schema.org structured data and Semantic Web technologies to hospitality distribution, Brewer will share actionable insights on how hotels can adapt today to the shift toward AI-native search and conversational commerce while strengthening direct guest relationships and reducing reliance on third-party intermediaries. Through Agentic Hospitality, he leads the development of AI infrastructure designed to help hotels reclaim control of the guest journey through intelligent orchestration, AI-native discoverability, and direct booking optimization.

“As travelers increasingly rely on AI-powered assistants and conversational search experiences, hotels must rethink how they position themselves digitally,” Brewer said. “This isn’t simply a marketing evolution; it’s a structural transformation in how guests discover and book travel. Hoteliers that prepare now will gain a major competitive advantage in direct revenue and guest ownership.”
