  • (1888PressRelease) September 18, 2012 - London - Cardonet, the specialist provider of IT services to the hotel industry, today announced its sponsorship of HOSPA, the Association for Hospitality Finance, Revenue & IT Professionals.

    The agreement will see Cardonet become a Gold Sponsor of HOSPA, joining Barclaycard, Agilysys, The Nav People and IdeaS in supporting one of the most progressive industry associations in the UK.

    Cardonet director Sagi Saltoun said "As we specialise in providing IT services to the hospitality sector, it is very important for us to make sure we are at the heart of the industry. HOSPA is a very proactive association with energy & ideas, and we are delighted to be able to support their work in this way. HOSPA has a very clear vision for its role in the industry and we look forward to playing an active part in helping them to achieve this. "

    The sponsorship deal will see Cardonet offer some free consultancy services to member organisations, as well as take an active role in topical industry discussions & regional membership meetings.

    Isaac Heinrich, Cardonet director, believes this is an important aspect of the sponsorship: "As an association, HOSPA is leading the way in terms of training & development, as well as lobbying on behalf of the industry and engaging with the wider finance and technology communities. This approach is creating an excellent platform for informed debate and the sharing of best practice. These are things that we believe passionately in at Cardonet, and by becoming a Gold sponsor of HOSPA we are able to use our knowledge & experience to hopefully add real value to industry discussions."
