At this year's conference we will take a look at the future of travel and what lies ahead for our industry. We will show you how the travel industry has embraced mobile technology to date and what things you should be doing on the social media front to continue to market your hostel to the online community.

On day 1 we will take a more in-depth look at social media and making the most of Twitter and Facebook for your business. We show you why it's more important than ever to respond to and socially engage with comments and blogs. And we will present some crucial business metrics and trends for the hostel industry.

With the explosion in use of mobile travel services and the rapid integration of mobile capabilities across all aspects of the travel industry, mobile is now an integral tool for marketing to and connecting with your customers. It is vital to keep on top of these new mobile trends and ways to target and engage with your customers. Day 2 looks at mobile technology and applications in travel.

Join us this January for our 6th conference, packed full with interesting speakers and even more time for debate and networking with your fellow hostel owners and hostelworld.com crew.
