On Thursday 30th April 2020 the second regional gathering of REBEC community was held under the title: REBEC online, Part II: Hospitality Regional Panel / Current and Upcoming Situation. I would like to take the opportunity to thank the outstanding speakers who helped us 'beak the ice'

Our speakers developed a dynamic and productive discussion about the current situation and extreme impact of COVID-19 on hotel industry. The impact on global economy and the immediate region will obviously be very deep and extensive. We exchanged ideas and experience in relation to the crisis in hospitality, its numerous challenges but also focus on numerous opportunities to appear in upcoming months. The panel was divided into five thematic units:
- Program of economic measures in the region, country by country
- Prospects for the upcoming tourist season
