At Far & Beyond Hospitality, we are extremely proud of our CEO, Dimitrios Karagkounis, who recently participated in the SEE (South East Europe) Airbnb Community Leaders Summit, representing Central Macedonia as an Airbnb Community Leader.
His presence at this important summit was not just about observing the latest developments in the short-term rental industry; it was also about actively engaging in community initiatives. His dedication and contributions were recognized with the “The Most Active Leader” award, a distinction that honors his active participation and commitment to the Airbnb community.
From the Summit to Action
On a later date, Dimitrios led his own workshop titled
“AI-Powered Hosting: Work Smarter, Host Better.”
As the workshop presenter, he shared practical knowledge and tools on how hosts can leverage artificial intelligence in their daily operations. The session focused on helping hosts:
-
improve reservation management and guest communication
-
save time and increase operational efficiency
-
deliver high-quality hospitality experiences
What This Means for Us
Dimitrios’ recognition and active engagement reflect the core values of Far & Beyond Hospitality: participation, collaboration, innovation, and continuous growth. We are proud that our expertise and knowledge are being shared back with the community, contributing to a stronger and more sustainable hospitality ecosystem.
This story reminds us that leadership in hospitality is not limited to titles or strategic decisions. It is reflected in everyday action, the willingness to share knowledge, and active participation in the community.
At Far & Beyond Hospitality, we continue to invest in learning, building connections, and taking part in initiatives that move Greek hospitality forward.
