The can’t-miss event of the year for hospitality commercial leaders, HSMAI’s Commercial Strategy Conference — and its pre- and post-conference workshops, trainings, and roundtables — reflects the convergence of marketing, revenue optimization, sales, and other commercial functions into new and evolving commercial strategy organizations inside many hotel companies.
The conference will give you new ways to think about today’s challenges and innovative approaches to address the trends that will impact you tomorrow. Expand your knowledge and leadership abilities, and leave with actionable insights and thought-provoking ideas to guide your strategies.
With powerful educational and networking opportunities, this event carries on HSMAI’s 20+ year legacy of connecting and engaging senior leaders in compelling, stimulating conversations about the most critical strategic issues facing the business today.
The conference will be live and in-person, and is organized by HSMAI’s Marketing Advisory Board and Revenue Optimization Advisory Board.
