STR, a market analysis company that focuses on the global hotel industry, recently released the 2019 version of DestinationMAP (or Meeting Assessment Program). The top five U.S. destinations that meeting planners intend to us over the next two years include New York, Chicago, Las Vegas, Orlando and Washington, D.C. Are you prepared to serve these markets?
A follow-up question: what percentage of your business involves serving the meetings and conferences market vs the traditional “concert-style” live event or tour-based event? There is value in both, of course, but I am curious to know what has been successful for you. Let me know
here.
And enjoy the issue below packed full of news from Extron, PixelFLEX, LG, Blackmagic Design and others, plus
an announcement from Masque Sound that they are entering the staging market.
