Destination Hotels & Resorts, the fourth largest hospitality management company in the U.S., recently released its second annual “State of the Meetings Industry” survey with some interesting insights into some changing trends—and how hotel companies can adapt to meet new demands.
Based on input from more than 180 corporate, association, independent, and government planners across the United States, the report provides insight on a number of key topics: budget; lead time; location; technology; culinary; teambuilding; and environmental sustainability. It also forecasts major meetings trends to watch for in 2014.
