Hilton connecting meeting planners in the cloud
Hilton Worldwide is unveiling a cloud-based real-time platform to assist meeting planners at over 100 of the group’s properties globally.
The interactive getplanning™ tool uses encrypted cloud-based technology to allow meetings professionals to share information with hotel events staff, vendors and stakeholders in real-time.
Features of the system include a centralized location for all relevant documentation, a single click to access floor plans or menus, and real-time cross-platform communication.
The tool will be made available for meeting planners at over 100 hotels in Hilton Worldwide’s Connect+ program.
Connect+ hotels generally have in excess of 450 guest rooms or more than 40,000 square feet of meeting space.
These include Hilton brands Waldorf Astoria Hotels, Conrad Hotels, DoubleTree by Hilton and Embassy Suites.
"We believe strongly in the value of personal relationships and this platform enables planners to stay connected to everyone involved in their event," said Mark Komine, senior vice president, sales for Americas, Hilton Worldwide.
