WHTT (Women in Hospitality and Travel-Tech)

Our mission

Entre todos los subsectores de la industria de la hospitalidad , los viajes y el ocio, un promedio del 26% de las altas ejecutivas son mujeres. En Woman in Hospitality and Travel Tech abogamos por una cultura más diversa en las organizaciones de hostelería y tecnología de viajes.

Nuestra misión es apoyar el crecimiento profesional de mujeres y grupos subrepresentados a través de la educación, la mentoría y el desarrollo profesional.

Creemos que al inspirar a las comunidades a ingresar a la industria y a las organizaciones a aprovechar el potencial y retener las personas en el sector, se creará un liderazgo más diverso.

About

Equipo WHTT

Rita Jusztina Varga

Managing Director
I'm Rita, a Hungarian living in Berlin, with Barcelona as my second home. Part of the hospitality world for as long s I can remember. Helping hotels solving their challenges is my passion, connecting people in the industry is my superpower. My customers say I'm like a pitbull. The birth of my daughter changed my perspectives and the goal of enabling more opportunities for her future gave the inspiration to create WHTT.
