Agilysys, Inc. (Nasdaq: AGYS), a leading global provider of
next-generation hospitality software solutions and services, today
announced that registration is open for the annual industry-leading
Agilysys Inspire User Conference & Executive Summit 2017. A
popular event for Agilysys customers, the conference will be held
Jan. 23-25 at M Resort in Las Vegas, and will feature
thought-leadership sessions focused on ‘Re-Imagining Hospitality’
designed to help customers drive revenue growth while improving the
guest experience.
Inspire 2017 will kick off with guest speaker Scott McKain, an
internationally recognized business leader and author. Founder of a
consulting and training company that explores the role of the
ultimate customer experience, McKain helps organizations create
distinction in every phase of business. The conference will also
feature nearly 100 dynamic and interactive educational sessions and
will bring together hospitality professionals and industry thought
leaders to exchange inspiration and best practices on how to
increase revenue, optimize operational efficiency and create
stronger connections with guests.
The three-day event will give attendees an opportunity to
network with industry peers and share information about how to
achieve success using Agilysys solutions for property management,
point-of-sale, inventory and procurement, transaction payment,
document management and more. In addition, the concurrent Agilysys
Executive Summit will provide a special track for senior-level
executives that features roundtable and panel discussions that
address topics customers have identified as mission-critical to
their businesses. And, to demonstrate the power of end-to-end
hospitality solutions, a Partner Pavilion will showcase products
that integrate with Agilysys software to deliver increased value
across the property.
This year’s conference will conclude with a special ‘Agilysys
Concert for the Kids’. The event, which will be held at Brooklyn
Bowl, will include an evening of music with recording artist and
Global Exchange’s Domestic Human Rights Award recipient Michael
Franti. As part of the event, funds will be raised to benefit Las
Vegas youth charities.
"In keeping with our theme of ‘Re-Imagining Hospitality,’ we
hope to energize attendees and give them an exciting new
perspective on our industry," said Jim Dennedy, president and chief
executive officer of Agilysys. "We have an outstanding roster of
speakers as well as lively and informative sessions that we hope
will encourage participants to make the most of their technology
investment. Our goal for this conference is to provide information
that not only helps our customers strengthen their operations and
grow their businesses, but also enables them to create lasting and
memorable connections with guests."
An Inspire 2017 app, available for both Android and iPhone
devices, will be released in early January. With the app, attendees
can create personalized agendas and view session dates and times,
speaker bios and exhibitor details. The app will also alert
attendees to upcoming events, scheduling changes and other
important information.
The early-bird registration fee, through Dec. 23, is $849 per
person. Beginning Dec. 24, the registration fee will be $995 per
person. Registration includes access to all educational sessions
and events as well as breakfast, lunch and refreshment breaks.
