Marriott Pursues Innovations to Streamline Construction and Build Energy Efficiency
Through multiple collaborations, Marriott will be teaming up with industry leaders, alongside Carrier, to explore new products, technologies and solutions for the hospitality industry. Central in this plan is the hospitality brand’s Design Lab, a Research and Development Lab working at the leading edge of design and innovation.
Carrier being an expert in healthy indoor environments, as well as the development of digital technologies that can help create a more intelligent, customer-focused hotel experience for guests, plays a central part in this.
