"HFTP's Corporate Allied Sponsorship not only expands professional development for participants' employees and company recognition; but also increases the depth of HFTP's network," said HFTP CEO Frank Wolfe, CAE, FIH. "Now offering this discount with HTNG creates an expansive vendor community, building the beneficial connections our industry needs at this time."

For both HFTP and HTNG, the programs provide companies valuable visibility and exposure among thousands of hospitality professionals across the globe. Participating companies get discounts and access to association events, focused-industry resources, networking, workgroups and other member benefits. Vendors also get special exhibit and sponsor discounts at the associations' events.

"The combined resources from our two associations will really escalate industry knowledge, networking and more to aid in business development and collaboration within hospitality."

A listing of benefits for each individual program is available, as well as on the associations' websites. The offer applies to the first year only and is not applicable to renewals. Contact the organizations at [email protected] (HFTP) or [email protected] (HTNG).
