Last July, more than 3,000 hotel and accommodation owners and operators hit Sydney for Australia’s largest industry tradeshow and conference, NoVacancy.
The attendees last year came from accommodation properties large and small - making the trip from around the country to spend two days finding inspiration and ideas that can drive better business results.
Williams Media caught up with Brad Langton, NoVacancy Event Director, to understand what’s new and in store at this year’s event:
Q. What can visitors expect to see at NoVacancy?
A. Our team spends 12 months curating hundreds of quality suppliers across many categories; from software for PMS, revenue management and marketing to decoration, art and furniture that enhance your guest experience, energy and cost saving solutions, food & beverage products, virtual reality, robots and everything in between. It’s everything you’d expect and more importantly, amazing things you’ve not thought about that can help you be more profitable.
Q. Last year there were a mix of seminars, is this the same in 2019?
A. We’re launching 7 education summits to run across this year’s event, each speaking to different job functions. They include the Hotel Leaders’ Summit, Small Hotelier Summit, Restaurant Reinvented Summit, Hotel Engineering & Maintenance Summit, Hotel Marketing Summit, Revenue & Distribution Summit and a Design Summit that cover a variety of practical and tactical learnings.
Q. Is the event still free, how, and why?
A. Yes, NoVacancy is completely free for professionals working in the accommodation industry. Suppliers fund the production of the event by participating in the expo; it gives them a platform to showcase the products and services you may already purchase or others that can make a difference in your business. It’s equally as beneficial for your readers to see everything under one roof across two days.
