How is the digital age revolutionizing the user experience in restaurants? How will this experience evolve as a result of the new technologies? What future awaits restaurants in the digital age? These will be some of the questions to be put on the table at the congress on hospitality and new technologies, organized by the Basque Culinary Center and Telefónica with the presence of Ferran Adrià.
It is a fact that the latest technological trends are revolutionizing the experiences of users in the gastronomic sector, turning them into users 4.0.

The congress will bring together experts in communication technologies and the hospitality sector, two fields which are building ever closer ties, in order to discuss the future of the restaurant in the digital age. In short, they will analyse how the user experience has evolved and will evolve as a result of the new technologies and identify which businesses are prepared to meet the needs for the coming 5 or 10 years.
The speakers at the congress will include Ferran Adrià, an ambassador for Telefónica, one of the most innovative chefs in history and among the 100 most influential people in the world, according to the TIME magazine, who will share his vision of the user experience in the digital age.
