bookmark this We are on Twitter @hotelinteractiv

On the January 25, 2013 on demand and downloadable episode, Hotel Interactive’s Editor-in-Chief Glenn Haussman is at the Americas Lodging Investment Summit AKA ALIS. It’s the biggest financially focused hotel event of the year and hotbed of deal making. And it was also the most jubilant in years as people are excited about future industry prospects and profits.
We speak with:

• The one and only Bruce Ford, SVP Lodging Econometrics is back. This time he shares his thoughts on why the hotel industry is grooving on all cylinders and we completely break it down for you.
• Then we chat with Larry Broughton, CEO of Broughton Hotels. He runs an incredible portfolio of hotels and we take an inside look at his company, the nearly completed The Moment hotel and learn what makes for a great boutique hotel.
• Then we wrap up with Gerry Chase, President of New Castle Hotels & Resorts. In this segment we dig into his thoughts on industry dynamics and then learn how is the company is in major expansion mode and what their growth strategy entails. Did someone say Canada?
