Meet us at the Convention, Sports & Entertainment Facilities Conference in Vegas on Monday, May 20, from 1:15 - 2:00 pm PT. Rob(in) Hunden, CEO of Hunden Partners, will moderate a panel alongside panelists Mike Garcia, President of Matthews Southwest Hospitality, Robert Kupchynsky, Development Director at Omni Hotels & Resorts & Resort, and Amy King, Vice President of Luxury, Mixed-Use, and Corporate Development at Hilton, where they will discuss “The Traditional Convention Headquarters Hotel is Old News. New Formats of Urban Resort & Leisure-Oriented Convention Hotels are Flipping the Narrative.” Gone are the days when a convention headquarters hotel primarily served group business. The economic realities of relying on one segment simply don’t add up for developers, brands, or their public-sector partners who are investing as much as 45% in incentives for projects. How are the savviest owners/operators/developers designing hotels for long-term success? The urban lifestyle resort that also caters to major group business. Come hear from developers and operators who are leveraging new revenue and markets with ‘cool’ big-box hotels that feature massive pool decks, spas, multiple restaurants and bars, and other features that target multiple audiences. When it comes to economics, the pivot toward leisure can increase value, increase tax revenue, decrease the public incentives needed, and create a better sense of place than ever before. #HundenPartners #CSEF #CSEFConference
