‘Taking the Investment Forward’ is the title of HOSPACE 2012 – the Annual Conference and Exhibition for Hospitality Finance, Revenue Management, IT and Commercial Professionals
The theme of this year’s eagerly awaited HOSPACE 2012 Annual Conference and Exhibition for hospitality finance, revenue management, IT and commercial professionals has been announced – ‘Taking the Investment Forward – Making the Most of the Investment in Your People and Business to Create Value’. This prestigious HOSPA event will be held on 22 November 2012 at the Sofitel London Heathrow, at Terminal 5.
Commenting on HOSPACE 2012, HOSPA Chief Executive Carl Weldon said: “Following on from the success of HOSPACE 2011, the 2012 event promises to be even more informative, thought provoking and enjoyable. In the wake of the summer’s events, HOSPACE 2012 will focus on building a positive future through adopting a balanced and innovative approach to our investment in people, management practices and systems – examining how we deliver profitability and quality, as well as create value.”
HOSPACE 2012 will enable UK and international delegates to get an informed and cutting-edge view from an international line-up of inspirational experts – all icons in their own field – about the latest key financial, revenue and IT management issues and developments; as well as the commercial aspects that connect these together to maximise profitability and create value. Highlights include: ‘A Leaders’ Panel’ comprising a line-up of some of the UK hospitality industry’s most influential executives who will be looking at present issues, trends and developments affecting all hospitality professionals; a top-level Finance Panel discussion on ’Getting the wheels of Hotel Finance to turn again’; a Revenue Management session asking the question: ‘What is the Revenue Management contribution to strategy and future leadership in hospitality?’; a ‘Hospitality IT Debate’ entitled: ‘Can outsourced IT services really support the needs of Hospitality IT for both internal business requirements and guest services?’; and a programme of industry specific educational workshops – all led by top specialists in their subjects.
As in past years, HOSPACE will be supported by a growing and increasingly influential exhibition of hospitality technology solutions – providing delegates with a ‘one stop shop’ to view and interact with the latest and ‘best in class’ technologies – covering all eventualities for any hospitality business, whether they be start-up, established independent, or multi chain-owned, operations.
HOSPACE 2012 promises to be invaluable for networking, professional updating – through expert presentations, panel forums and educational workshops – and experiencing Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
The event’s grand finale Gala Dinner – including the signature ‘HOSPA Pub Quiz’ – is one of the traditional social networking highlights of the Conference.
