More than 3 million hotel rooms worldwide are represented. Attendance is strictly limited so that your experience is productive and enjoyable. With over 40 think tanks covering an array of industry-related topics, you can custom-tailor your program based on your specific needs and areas of interest. Think Tanks are limited in size so that YOU can participate. The dress code is always casual! All of our sessions are interactive. Attendees have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and get involved. With four cocktail parties, extended refreshment breaks, breakfasts, luncheons, and gold tournament, the opportunities for networking are endless. One-on-one meetings at the Deal Corral, a day dedicated to helping you find the money you need to get your hotel deal done. And of course, great door prizes including the famous $1,000 briefcase give-away. When you combine all of this with the luxurious atmosphere of The Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa, it's easy to see why more deals get done at The Lodging Conference than any other industry event. With the economy improving, demand and occupancy rising, and deal flow beginning to heat up, we are expecting another great event in September. Over the past 18 years, more than 21,000 high-powered industry executives from around the globe have attended The Lodging Conference. We bring together the hotel industry's most influential owners, presidents, CEOs and dealmakers to strategize about development, finance, franchising, management and operations. More than just a conference, the entire event is a THINK TANK where everybody in attendance has the opportunity to join in the conversation, discuss issues, and solve problems. With continuous opportunities to network, gourmet food, and a casual dress code, along with a who's who of industry owners and developers in attendance, it's no surprise that our attendees say they make more contacts, and do more deals, at The Lodging Conference than at any other industry event. This all takes place on the grounds of the incredibly relaxing Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa. Harry Javer and Morris Lasky Conference Founders
