Resorts & Great Hotel's June 2006 Private Meetings Summit Set
WINTER PARK, FL, April 10, 2006. One of the most innovative events in the travel industry, Resorts & Great Hotel's 2006 Private Meetings Summit, will be held at the Hyatt Regency Lake Las Vegas Resort June 19-21, 2006. This extraordinary event will again bring together representatives from 100 of the world's leading luxury resorts and hotels with the travel industry's most prominent meeting/incentive planners.
Since its launch in 2002, the Private Meetings Summit has become the industry standard and is now produced twice a year by Resorts & Great Hotels. The format for the summit is highly efficient: each property meets with buyers in prescheduled 20-minute appointments. Appointments are made online through privatemeetingssummit.com, where decision-making meeting planners are matched with the resort or hotel that meets their needs.
"The distinct and efficient format provides a unique means to successfully plan and book meetings," says Ron Gebhardt, Publisher of Resorts & Great Hotels and producer of the Private Meetings Summit. "This is where corporate incentive and meeting planners can meet one-on-one with the world's elite properties in an intimate setting."
The Summit's unique system is a marked improvement over time-consuming, expensive site inspections and other circus-like travel-industry trade shows. The 200 handpicked planners attending the Summit will need just two days to access the 100 key decision-makers of the world's finest properties.
Situated on the shores of Lake Las Vegas and 17 miles from the famed Las Vegas Strip, the four-star, award-winning Hyatt Regency Lake Las Vegas Resort sits nestled on 25 acres of direct-access waterfront. Natural wonders such as Lake Mead, the Valley of Fire and Hoover Dam surround the Moroccan-inspired resort.
Plans are already being finalized for Resorts & Great Hotel's Fall 2006 Private Meetings Summit, which will take place in October and feature 100 Meeting Traveler properties.
