A forum for the North American hotel industry.
You know in advance exactly which buyers will be attending HOTEC - along with each buyer's company profile, projected spending budgets, services and products they are interested in sourcing and other valuable market information.
Buyers attend HOTEC to source new vendors and further their relationships with existing suppliers.
The buyers are carefully pre-selected and invited so you are guaranteed a qualified audience of buyers.
Only the corporate senior decision makers from the major hotels, resorts, casinos, cruise lines, restaurants, purchasing and management companies are invited to attend HOTEC.
You select the buyers you wish to meet. You receive a personalized schedule of one-on-one meetings incorporating your requests and those selected by the buyers.
No booths, no time wasters, simply powerful one-on-one meetings.
The ratio of buyers to suppliers is strictly controlled and the number of suppliers attending from each category is also limited.
Unlike tradeshows, where you have no control over who stops by and how much time they spend on your booth and unlike sales calls and meetings where the buyers are hard to get hold of and cannot always give you their undivided attention, at HOTEC you:
Conduct months' worth of meetings over two intensive days in 5-star surroundings organized to support business.
The foundations of HOTEC are based upon a meetings forum that creates the ideal networking environment. Everyone stays at the same resort and attends with their minds focused on business and the desire to derive maximum information from the event.
Additional activities built into the meetings' program, such as the vendor showcase, social program, lunches, receptions and evening activities all ensure that you will meet with your key targets and have the opportunity to develop further business relationships.
Enjoy presentations and discussion forums with high caliber speakers in a seminar program designed specifically to tackle issues facing the hospitality industry today.
With a guarantee of pre-scheduled face-to-face meetings, vendor showcase, 3 nights' accommodation, meals, receptions, entertainment, airport transfers, full page entry in the renowned HOTEC Annual Resource Guide and the unparalleled networking opportunities all included in the fee, we are never surprised that our delegates repeatedly tell us that HOTEC events offer their best return on investment from their entire marketing spend.
"After attending many tradeshows over the years, I was very impressed with the format where I could have a dedicated time slot to discuss key matters and be educated on products and services that were of interest to me. The show allowed me to use my time efficiently. The HOTEC staff were very accomodating and a pleasure to work with! Thank You."Dave Rajyagor, Stonebridge Companies
"It was the BEST trade meeting I have ever attended during my 20 years experience in the Hotel industry. Everything was excellent, especially meeting the organisers and the the attendees. I loved the International flavor that was present throughout the meeting. "Vickie Shows, Americas Best Franchising, Inc
