New event: Hotel, Hospitality + Design Expo 2010

25 February 2010 - Diversified Exhibitions has announced the launch of Hotel, Hospitality + Design Expo 2010 - a hotel industry show with a key focus on design, fitout and refurbishment for the hotel, resorts, spas and hospitality industry.

Hotel, Hospitality + Design Expo 2010, to be held at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre from 24-26 May 2010, is aimed at hotel managers and design professionals who wish to maximise the appeal and performance of the assets under their care.
Hotel refurbishment is one of the most important factors in keeping a hotel appealing and contemporary to its customers. It was the original king of hoteliers and hotelier to kings, Cesar Ritz, who professed that a hotel must transcend the average living environment in order to satisfy a customer’s experience as something special. Today his musings are no less relevant.
Hotel, Hospitality + Design 2010 will include the Hotel Operations and Technology Show, as well as a rich conference program. Some of the most influential hoteliers and suppliers from around the world will reveal their secrets of success and offer advice for the future. Delegates will get an insight into gaining a competitive advantage in what is a broad and evolving industry.
The event is supported by the industry’s key associations and many are aligning established industry events with the program. The Australian Hotels Association (national and Victorian), the Hotel Motel & Accommodation Association, Liquor Merchants Association of Australia, and the Professional Executive Housekeepers Network and AAA Tourism have all pledged their allegiance to the expo. HHD is also thrilled to announce two significant suppliers, Dulux and Philips, who are supporting the event respectively as the refurbishment stage and LCD and lighting sponsors.
“We are spearheading this important side of the business for the hospitality industry,” says exhibition manager Michael-William Kelly.
“For the exhibitor it brings the market and the customer to them, presenting the opportunity to launch new products, build brands, support resellers, generate sales and receive valuable feedback instantly. We expect up to 10,000 bona fide decision-making industry representatives through our doors. For the hospitality industry representative it is a platform to learn new ways to improve business in just a few days.”
