Benefits for Industry Partners

Benefits for technology and service providers:
- All memberships are corporate, and benefits are available to all employees, as well as to affiliated companies under common control of greater than fifty percent
- Meet and work directly with top hotel buyers and technical strategists at intimate workgroup meetings or at annual members-only conferences and meetings
- Participate in problem-solving workgroups to understand hotelier needs and to cooperate with vendors of other technologies to develop leading-edge solutions to fit those needs
- Protect your product investment by understanding the evolution of hotel needs, industry standards, and the direction of other vendor segments with which you need to work
- Incorporate HTNG branding and logo on your marketing materials to show hotels your commitment to meeting their interoperability needs
- Enjoy market advantage over your competitors when you certify your product to HTNG standards and show the “HTNG Certified” label on your packaging
- By being an active workgroup leader or implementing workgroup-designed solutions, you can get many opportunities for free publicity, including speaking opportunities at major HTNG meetings, case studies publicized by HTNG, and articles in trade press.
- Members-only opportunities to sponsor or exhibit at HTNG events
- Promote your company's innovation by entering products in our annual Most Innovative Hospitality Technology Award - reviewed and voted on by our hotelier and consultant member base.
- Expose your truly innovative technology quickly, in an environment where quality and technical value matter -- but the size of your company does not.
