Partner Company Organizational Membership Overview

We would like to invite your company to join HSMAI as an Organizational Member for calendar year 2023.

With an Organizational Membership, your company and multiple corporate associates will have access to a wide range of unique benefits. This includes leadership positions including an appointment to serve on the HSMAI Americas governing board and seats on the associations Advisory Boards. These vary by level of membership.

Among the most valuable benefits is the opportunity for your team to engage with peers from other Organizational Member companies at Curate, a unique executive insights forum exclusively for organizational member associates where they can connect and discuss priority issues and emerging trends across hotel sales, marketing, revenue optimization, and distribution.  Curate offers invaluable insights that can help lead you and your company through the most critical business  concerns facing the hospitality industry.

Individuals can also join HSMAI on their own or as part of a multiple membership option.
