Much More Than Presentations

One-On-One Strategy Meetings

The unproductive days of aimlessly strolling an expo floor are over! In advance of the forum, participants of HotelSpaces are able to login to our private network and schedule face-time with the service providers and supplier companies that interest them most.

Intimate Group Discussions

As well as thought-provoking talks, WorkSpaces also facilitates casual discussions among peers. With some of the nation’s top corporations in one spot, we believe in the value of fostering relaxed, organic conversations.

Unforgettable Networking

We know that a prime reason people attend events is to network. Which is why we carefully plan the social events that take place at HotelSpaces. Numerous outdoor networking activities and a dinner party with entertainment are just a few of the memorable events we have planned.

“Excellent! I was able to meet some new industry peers and the intimacy of this event was really great.”

Networking Activities

Sunday

Best of Austin Food Truck Tour

Austin isn’t just the state capital of Texas — it’s the food truck capital of the world! Spend the afternoon getting to know your industry peers as you scout out the city’s best eats. With the help of a knowledgeable tour guide, you’ll embark on a 3-hour adventure through Austin’s funkiest neighborhoods. Enjoy authentic Texas barbecue, local libations, and a diverse selection of Austin’s most delicious street food.

Sunday

Lake Travis Brewery Experience

Mingle with colleagues and broaden your knowledge of craft beer making during our afternoon at the Oasis Texas Brewing Company. Located high in the Hill Country and 400 feet above Lake Travis, Oasis’ serene backdrop is the most relaxing setting to begin our retreat. We’ll enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at the gravity fed vertical brewery, savor flights of their award-winning craft beers and cap it off with a delicious lakeside barbecue.
