Today’s interview with Hooman Shahidi, President and Co-Founder at EVPassport, provides an outstanding opportunity for hospitality businesses to add value to their organization and build for the future.
Hooman and his organization are seeking to make electric vehicle charging more affordable and accessible both for consumers and businesses. By lowering the barrier of entry to acquiring charging equipment, Hooman and his team are making it feasible for companies to provide this extra service for their guests. Hooman sees a future where this infrastructure is almost ubiquitous, and where electric charging stations become an essential amenity for guests seeking travel accommodation.
With the global transition to cleaner sources of energy, this future may be greatly accelerated, and Hooman doesn’t think it will be long before electric charging stations stand alongside Wi-Fi as a non-negotiable element of an organization’s infrastructure.
The accessibility of Hooman’s infrastructure is a great lesson in the need for businesses to always be thinking about future added value. The hospitality industry is dynamic and needs to evolve as the needs and desires of guests change, often with the advent of new technology.
