  • By reaching Premier status in the Connectivity Partner Programme (CPP), you too can benefit from sponsored partner industry events


We host events around the world to build stronger relationships, support our partners’ initiatives and learn how we can continue improving the experience for you and our mutual accommodation partners. These events are an opportunity to support your growth while gaining insights into your unique needs.


As we look forward to another year of productive partnership, dive into some of our top events from H2 of 2023 below. 


Connectivity Advisory Board | Barcelona, Spain

This one-day event brought together technical and commercial elected board members for strategic conversations about industry trends, optimising the Connectivity programme and how we can make continuous improvements. Participants engaged in roundtable discussions on topics such as standardisation, tech modernisation, commercial benefits, sustainability and platform and tooling experiences.


Travel Tech | Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Hosted at our Amsterdam headquarters, we welcomed 55 attendees representing 42 of our Premier partners for our first-ever Travel Tech event. The event aimed to unite our technical teams to share updates and develop solutions to common problems our mutual accommodation partners face.


Attendees were invited to share their feedback and ideas at ‘guru bars’ – supportive spaces for partners to chat with product, technical, engineering and documentation experts. We discussed a range of topics including fallback management, payments, authentication, beta testing and much more. 


Sponsored Premier partner events

To reward Premier partners for their status in the Connectivity Partner Programme (CPP), we offer sponsored partner industry events. These events are designed to strengthen our relationships, invest in our partners, provide value for the Connectivity community and empower you to shape the hospitality tech industry.


We sponsored 24 Connectivity partner events in 2023, with 12 of those events taking place in H2. You can find out more about our H1 events and explore some of the H2 highlights below:


Level Up by Streamline | Phoenix, USA

To kick off H2, we sponsored the 2023 edition of the annual Streamline Summit. This three-day event was a great chance to connect with Streamline’s property managers to share knowledge and gain insight into their needs.


NEXT2023 Transformative Technology by Track | Minneapolis, USA

We teamed up with Track for the NEXT2023 conference in Minneapolis. The September event centred around ‘transformative technology’ and how the travel and hospitality industry can harness it.


The Avantio Partnership – TAP 2023 by Avantio | Valencia, Spain

In October, we joined Avantio in Valencia for TAP 2023. The event gave space for 500+ vacation rental professionals to build strong connections with industry experts and service providers. Payments were a key topic, with a clear focus on enhancing this key area of the business due the growing demand in terms of usability and security.


Reboot Forward Forum by RateGain | Singapore and Malaysia

We sponsored RateGain’s Reboot events in Singapore and Malaysia. Here, different industry players brainstormed the tech solutions that are currently missing that would help them improve their customers' travel experiences.


The Big Connect – A Hospitec Conference by STAAH | Bali and Jakarta, Indonesia

The Big Connect events in October and November brought together hospitality leaders in Indonesia to deep-dive into ‘the new travel market’ – from emerging customer behaviours to how property owners maximise revenue.


Community Event 2023 by vOffice | Hamburg, Germany


We joined vOffice in November for a Community Event in Hamburg, where we had the opportunity to make new connections and discuss how we can create seamless experiences for properties.
