DESIGNED FOR HOTEL OWNERS

Page 2: Hunter Hotel Conference Program 2014

Please join us at the 26th Annual Hunter Hotel Investment Conference in March in Atlanta.

The Hunter Hotel Investment Conference is considered one of the top four hotel investment conferences in the nation. Since our first conference in 1989, we have had a consistent focus on what we are… a hotel real estate and finance conference designed for hotel owners.

The theme of our conference this year is “The Time is Now!”. It is a call to action for hoteliers to step up and move forward. Whatever it is you are considering, “The Time is Now!” to develop and implement your plan. What’s on your agenda for the year? It is a very good time to refinance, buy, develop, sell, renovate. Are you dealing with PIPS…thinking about growing… searching for financing? “The Time is Now!”

Now more than ever you need timely and accurate information and informed insight to move forward. The

Hunter Hotel Investment Conference will help you move forward by providing timely information from knowledgeable and experienced industry leaders.

The Conference provides an event that is both productive and enjoyable. It is designed to give you ample opportunities to develop new relationships with lodging leaders and dealmakers and reconnect with friends and colleagues.

We look forward to seeing you at the 26th Annual Hunter Hotel Investment Conference in Atlanta, March 26-28, 2014.
