AAHOA hosted its 2023 Georgia Regional Conference & Trade Show Thursday, June 1, at the Hilton Atlanta Airport in Atlanta, GA.

Nearly 200 attendees joined AAHOA Georgia Regional Director Vik Zaver and his Georgia Region Ambassadors at this region’s largest event of the year.

AAHOA’s Regional Conferences & Trade Shows are the best way for attendees to network and connect with hoteliers and vendors across their region. Additionally, more than $21k was raised for the AAHOA PAC.

“The AAHOA Georgia Region is home to so many of our members with a historic presence,” Georgia Regional Director Vik Zaver said. “We’ve always set the bar high and the benefits our members can utilize from networking to education to the best trade show is what drives us to be bigger and better every year!”

Special guest speakers included Chris Hardman, the Director of Government affairs and membership for GHLA, Tim Dick, MAI, CRE, PhD from CBRE Data, and Helen Zaver, with National Hospitality Group at Colliers, who presented a finance panel discussion on current economic situations, loan maturities, construction loans, and more. Additionally, Georgia members were able to earn their certificate for the BEST Inhospitable to Human Trafficking Training, sponsored by AAHOA.
