Sleepover Amsterdam 2013
5 posts
Sleepover is a new style of networking event for the hotel industry, bringing together like-minded souls involved in creating new hotel concepts worldwide. Our maiden voyage in 2012 saw 100 hotel innovators gather in Berlin for 24 hours of adventure. 2013 sees our second expedition set forth into the uncharted waters of Amsterdam. Our mission remains the same – for our guests to meet in a less formal environment than other industry events, for the sharing of ideas, experiences and knowledge to help grow each others’ businesses. So, no seminars, speed dating, or sales pitches, just social networking of the traditional variety – great venues, good food and a bit of grog with industry friends both old and new. After all, we’re all in the same boat.
