Welcome

On behalf of the International Hotel Technology Forum (IHTF), I am delighted to be sending you the latest IHTF newsletter. 

With only six weeks until the event, preparations for this highly anticipated IHTF are well underway. There is an impressive line up of key Hoteliers and vendors who are already attending. See below for updates from some of these companies.

I am delighted to announce that areas of discussion at IHTF 2009 will be VoIP, IP Convergence and ‘The Critical Theory of Hotel Technology’. These topics will be lead respectively by Avaya, VDA and AMX. Also there will be industry led discussions about the future of hotel technology where you will be able to share your views with CIOs and VPs of IT of leading hotels and chosen vendors to discuss the approach and challenges in the coming year ahead. 

Situated at the InterContinental, Dubai, IHTF will be your ideal opportunity to focus on your potential customers in this valuable one-to-one meeting format. If you have not yet registered do not miss this opportunity to create new business opportunities for 2009.

For more information and registration please contact me.

I look forward to seeing you in Dubai.

Kind Regards,

Claudia Wood
