HITEC 2009 Online Buyer's Guide Provides Easy Access to Trade Show
AUSTIN, TX, April 29, 2009 - The 2009 Hospitality Industry Technology Exposition and Conference (HITEC(R)) Buyer's Guide, now available on HITEC.org, offers a valuable planning tool that is useful before, during and after the show. The Buyer's Guide offers visitors a number of search functions, information on each exhibitor and an easy-to-navigate, real-time floor plan. HITEC 2009, a service of Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals (HFTP(R)), is June 22-25 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, Calif. USA.
"With hundreds of exhibitors, it can be a bit overwhelming to visit the exhibit hall at HITEC without a plan. The Buyer's Guide allows attendees to identify which exhibitors they want to visit before they arrive in Anaheim," said Frank Wolfe, CAE, CEO of HFTP. "As an added bonus, the Buyer's Guide remains on the HITEC web site for several months after the show so attendees can access key vendor information once they return home."
THE HITEC 2009 Buyer's Guide includes tools to help attendees plan their exhibit hall experience. With "My Expo," visitors can create a list of exhibitors they want to visit and print a colorful floor plan that pinpoints those exhibitors. It includes the most up-to-date alphabetical list of exhibitors and the ability to search by product, keyword, booth number, company name and special groups like new exhibitors, sponsors and Club Technology Pavilion exhibitors.
HITEC is the world's largest hospitality technology exposition and conference. It offers attendees a one-stop shop for essential education, access to experts and hospitality technology vendors, networking with top leaders in the industry and the resources to find cost-effective ways to improve company bottom lines. Registration and the full conference schedule are available online at HITEC.org.
