Co-founder and Managing Director of Limehome In this episode we had the chance to speak to the Co-founder and Managing Director of Limehome, Dr. Josef Vollmayr. We were introduced to the rise of alternative accommodations and the success of sharing economies. Florian and Josef spoke about the companies USP of having no manual interaction in the guest journey as well as building value through technology following the change in customer behaviour. As Josef is a founder, the gentlemen shed light on the key challenges of start-ups and we got an insight into the dynamic venture capitalist scene for tech-enabled hospitality products. Josef reflected upon the benefits of focussing on smaller cities and properties, gaining insights from American concepts and logically we couldn’t end the episode without talking about our dreams and wishes for the future. Enjoy the show!
