The event brought together, for the first time, a cross section of vendors providing environmental and energy conservation products and services, with a large number of hoteliers. Each vendor was allowed time for a short presentation followed by fellowship during which time the hoteliers were able to meet and discuss with the vendors on a one-to-one basis.
