SPONSORSHIP AND EXHIBITOR OPPORTUNITIES

28 November 2019 Royal Lancaster , London Welcome to HOSPACE

HOSPACE is the annual conference, exhibition and awards dinner for HOSPA, the hospitality professionals association.

“Each year HOSPACE brings something new, whilst maintaining our core values of delivering great content to hoteliers and the wider hospitality industry. Based on the feedback from last year, motivation to attend is twofold. Firstly, to ensure they are keeping abreast of industry developments from on stage presentations and debates, the workshops and technical updates and from the key suppliers to the industry. Secondly is to network with their peers, hospitality consultants and experts. Our reputation for being the best networking event is one we are all proud of and keen to maintain.” Jane Pendlebury, Chief Executive of HOSPA

“Since Criton’s inception, HOSPA have been a key organisation and partner for our business. In 2018 we were one of the sponsors of the annual HOSPACE which is an important event for our industry. The platform enabled us the opportunity to talk directly to colleagues in the industry through a mix of business briefings and networking. In 2017, our CEO was awarded the prestigious HOSPACE Best Entrepreneur Award, and last year she was invited back to host the presentations of the finalists at the same event – a huge honour. We would recommend colleagues attend HOSPACE 2019 and the Criton team look forward to seeing you there!” Susan Russell, Head of Marketing
