The Refinishing Touch Blog

Last week The Refinishing Touch attended the 2008 East Coast Buyer Interactive Trade Alliance and Conference (BITAC), hosted by Hotel Interactive at the Grand Floridian Resort in Orlando, Florida.

BITAC was a eventful conference this year, with 71 suppliers and 75 Lodging Executives. We were very impressed, as always, by the convention because it seemed everyone there was very open and like minded working towards maintaining and establishing strong professional relationships. The "speed dating" meeting setting is a perfect atmosphere to establish and strengthen our hospitality relationships. With the wide range of activities, and integration of buyers and suppliers, BITAC is always a successful event.


During the conference we attended of a number of enlightening speeches and were part of some roundtable discussions, including "What are some of the toughest issues facing the lodging business going forward" and "Outshining Guest Expectations Through Design".

Overall it was a great event for The Refinishing Touch as we learned a lot and met great people. We also got to see our old industry friends, which is always good for business. This year we will also be participating in BITAC Purchasing & Design 2008 West from October 19-21st in Colorado.
