The 18th Annual Executive Vendor Summit
Hospitality Upgrade Magazine has announced that its 18th Annual Executive Vendor Summit (EVS) will be held at The Loews Hotel in New Orleans, La., from March 29-March 31, 2023. The Executive Vendor Summit is a unique invitation-only industry event that brings together senior level technology executives from the hospitality industry for learning, thought leadership and networking.
The host hotel is located within walking distance of the Riverfront, the French Quarter, Magazine Street, Audubon Aquarium, the National WWII Museum, and the New Orleans Morial Convention Center. Tennessee Williams famously captured the charm and romance of New Orleans in his plays and stories, and it's all on show here at Loews New Orleans Hotel. Located in the New Orleans Art District, discover comfort, soulful experiences, and the heart of the Big Easy at this downtown New Orleans hotel.
In an industry based on competition as much as partnerships, the Executive Vendor Summit offers vendor executives a rare combination of networking, social events and program content in a relaxed atmosphere, with no customers and no selling. “In my conversations with those in the vendor community, executives tell me they are truly excited about gathering at a face-to-face industry event,” said Hospitality Upgrade CEO and Publisher Rich Siegel. “EVS is for the vendor community, but it’s amazing how many hoteliers want to join us this year. This event allows attendees to develop and foster critical relationships with their peers, as well as focus on both challenges and opportunities in the industry.”

The 2023 EVS program includes many popular sessions including the following: Mergers and Acquisitions; Intellectual Property, Security and IP; and of course, the robust and animated CIO panel. Check back for the program and sessions which are being added to the 2023 EVS program.
Hospitality Upgrade is continuing its partnership with Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals (HFTP) for this year’s event and program. "The Executive Vendor Summit is the world's only hospitality technology supplier invitational event, and Hospitality Upgrade has done a phenomenal job, both by supplying stellar education and facilitating a number of hospitality technology companies' mergers, acquisitions and, most importantly, partnerships," said HFTP CEO Frank Wolfe.
