The Hilton journey with headless CMS and content ops

Gordon McKie will be taking us through their project with headless CMS, their plans for the next-generation connected room, and how this should all tie together.

Hilton have made a significant investment in content operations - they have a team of 70 based in Scotland and Texas. They are still answering questions about roles, skillsets and team design. When resource isn’t the primary constraint, what’s your next move?

Gordon will present on the headless CMS/Connected Room topic with an opportunity to explore the project with him. We will also be holding a discussion around taking teams forward, in terms of structure, skills, roles, and culture. The conversation will start with the questions they have at Hilton.

Timings:

  • 9:15 Arrive for coffee/tea and pleasantries

  • 9:30 Check-in round

  • 10:00 Hilton, headless CMS, and the connected room

  • 11:00 CYBG, Spotify’s model and interfacing with a traditional culture

  • 12:00 Lunch + Christmas market

  • 13:15 Uni of Edinburgh, The reality of running digital services at scale

  • 14:00 Hilton, taking the teams forward - structure, skills, roles, and culture

  • 14:45 Closing round & feedback

  • 15:00 Finish
