Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals (HFTP®) has opened online registration for its Annual Convention, which it has produced since 1952.
Following the traditional event format, the event will offer a variety of educational sessions, networking and vendor opportunities. HFTP has secured two keynote speakers who will discuss topics relating to productivity, engagement, collaboration and communication in the workplace: Colette Carlson and Curt Steinhorst. The HFTP Annual Convention will take place from Oct. 24-26 at the brand new Omni Louisville Hotel in Louisville, Kentucky.
HFTP Annual Convention full registration attendees will have access to three days of education, two days of table top exhibits, a Welcome Reception and a formal HFTP Tribute to Success dinner and dance. The 2018 schedule of events is available on the HFTP website, and will be continuously updated until the event.

The HFTP Greater Louisville Chapter will also host a social night event on Oct. 25, 2018 at the Kentucky Derby Museum to support the HFTP Helps fundraiser.
