Chicago is tops for business meetings

   Chicago has won the top spot among the country's objective to which the company and association meetings and event planning, according to Cvent, a technology company that connects event planners with tens of thousands of places. 

Looking at the booking data from July 2013 to June 2014, the company discovered that Chicago has edged into first place compared to the previous year, overtaking Orlando, who is now second, followed by Las Vegas. 

"This is quite significant, '" said Eric Eden, vice president of marketing Cvent, noting that it is usually difficult for other USA cities over Orlando and Las Vegas, which has a large convention center and hotel that they themselves have millions of feet meeting space. 

But Chicago has seen extensive investments in the hotel, including a major renovation of the Hyatt Regency Chicago and The Langham, he said. The fact that Chicago and other Midwestern cities more centrally located is also interesting because they may be more convenient and affordable for participants traveling from different cities. 

"Chicago is very attractive especially for association meetings as they try to draw their membership from across the country, '" Eden said. "It's not just hotel rates that may be more competitive than some other locations.

Convention centers, hotels and visitor bureau properties vying to buff up, increasing entertainment options and offer incentives to event planners as host meetings or corporate events can be vital to the city treasury and hotel. 

"For most hotels, meetings and events about a third of their business, and overall, meetings and events is a huge economic driver for many cities," said Eden. 

Meetings can be more profitable for individual travelers rather than hotels because the tab accrued from catering and audio-visual aid along with other services. 

For the cities, "it is not only hotel revenues, '" Eden said. "It's revenue that goes to restaurants, shopping and entertainment. '"

Tourism generates nearly $ 5 billion per year for the Nashville-area economy, and 40% of the revenue derived from meetings and events, said Heather Middleton, spokeswoman for the Nashville Convention and Visitors Corporation.
