Technology is, without a doubt, shaping our future – and its effect on the travel and technology industry is one that can transform a guest experience. 

Marriott Hotels takes pride in staying ahead of the curve, and in a continuing effort to find cutting-edge technologies that provide guests with the best, it has now launched its TestBED programme in the Middle East & Africa.

First launched by Marriott Hotels across Europe in 2016, the unique 10-week accelerator programme gives start-ups the opportunity to test their products within an operating Marriott Hotel in a major city.

The programme is open to seed and early stage start-ups with products or services that are ready to pilot in a live hotel environment. It offers them an invaluable opportunity to gain worthwhile feedback from guests and associates to help further develop and perfect their product.

Participating start-ups are hand-picked in an effort to uncover those that can revolutionize a guest’s stay, reinventing the hotel experience throughout the region. 

Those selected will also be offered mentoring and global exposure. Interested parties can learn more or submit an application via
