Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals (HFTP®), an international nonprofit association and producers of Hospitality Industry Technology Exposition and Conference (HITEC®), has sold all exhibit spaces for the upcoming HITEC Amsterdam 2018. HITEC Amsterdam will feature 84 exhibiting companies – a 43 percent increase from the inaugural 2017 event. A floorplan with a list of participating companies is available on the HITEC Amsterdam website. HITEC Amsterdam will take place from 11-13 April at the RAI Amsterdam Convention Centre in The Netherlands.

For companies who were not able to reserve a booth in time, a waiting list for booth space is available with placement given on a first-come, first-served basis. HFTP also offers exhibitor supporter packages for non-exhibiting companies, which grants access to all of the same perks HITEC exhibitors receive – the next best thing to having a booth. Exhibitor supporters receive two full conference registrations, recognition in the HITEC mobile app as well as branding throughout the conference.

For exhibiting companies, sponsorship opportunities are available for companies to stand out and have their organization name seen by the thousand plus attendees before and after the show. See which opportunities are still available and download the marketing kit by visiting the event website.

"The inaugural HITEC Amsterdam event last year featured over 1,100 hospitality professionals from around the globe," said Frank Wolfe, CEO at HFTP. "HITEC dominates the hospitality conference and tradeshow space on an international level, and is a valuable way for companies to gain exposure within the North American, European and Middle Eastern markets."

Booth space for HITEC Houston, the largest HITEC of 2018, is available now – last year's space sold out quicker than ever before. HITEC, produced by HFTP since 1972, offers a unique combination of top-notch hospitality technology and finance education, led by industry peers and experts, and an unparalleled trade show showcasing the latest hospitality technology products and services.
