CHICAGO | Hotel Technology Next Generation (HTNG) marks a major milestone in its growth next month, with its first-ever Members’ Meeting in the Middle East region. HTNG’s annual events in North America, Europe, and Asia are well known for drawing top-level speakers and attendees from the entire hotel technology community. The program scheduled for the Jumeirah Emirates Tower Hotel in Dubai on May 15-16 will continue this tradition. Special offers are available for non-members of HTNG interested in attending. As a non-profit organization run by top hotel IT executives for the benefit of hotels and their technology vendors, HTNG understands the issues hotel technologists face. This year's planned agenda provides thought leadership presentations and panel sessions on important hospitality technology issues—future trends, credit card security, social media/networking, guest room technologies, cloud computing and bandwidth usage trends. The program and speaker lineup include:
HTNG's members' meetings are for members only, but even with the cost of membership, the event is priced for hoteliers at substantially less than conferences of comparable quality. Memberships start at just $325 for hoteliers and individual consultants, and as a special incentive for this first Middle East meeting, HTNG is including event registration with any new hotel membership or corporate industry partner (vendor) membership in the region. For hoteliers, this means a one-year membership and meeting registration for half the regular price of the meeting alone.
For more information or to register, visit http://www.htng.org/middleast. Vendors who are not currently members of HTNG should contact HTNG at events@htng.org for information about attending. A limited number of sponsorship opportunities remain available.
Part of the American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA), HTNG the premier technology solutions association in the hospitality industry, HTNG serves members from hospitality companies, technology vendors to hospitality, consultants, media and academic experts. HTNG's members participate in focused workgroups to bring to market open solution sets addressing specific business problems. HTNG fosters the selection and adoption of existing open standards and also develops new open standards to meet the needs of the global hospitality industry.
Currently more than 400 corporate and individual members from across this spectrum, including world leading hospitality companies and technology vendors, are active HTNG participants. HTNG's Board of Governors, consisting of 22 top IT leaders from hospitality companies around the world, itself has technology responsible for over 3 million guest rooms and world-leading venues. HTNG publishes workgroup proceedings, drafts and specifications for all HTNG members as soon as they are created, encouraging rapid and broad adoption. HTNG releases specifications into the public domain as soon as they are ratified by the workgroups.
