Hotel Ezra Cornell is a three-day, student-run business conference for hospitality industry leaders and members of the Cornell community from across the globe. A 98-year tradition of the School of the Hotel Administration, HEC is one of the oldest organizations at Cornell and an unparalleled introduction to the students, faculty, and alumni of the preeminent hospitality program in the nation. Featuring some of the most talented individuals in the business, the conference will discuss the latest developments in hospitality and include leisure events for attendees to network with other professionals and meet the students who will be leading the industry in the future.

The last few years have been unprecedented, making the friend next door feel like they are in a neighboring city, neighboring cities feel like faraway countries, and faraway countries, lands uncharted. Today, we stand with a newfound understanding of the importance of community and the strength that lies in learning from one another.

At the Cornell Nolan School of Hotel Administration, we believe that the future of the hospitality industry lies in our collective diversity. HEC 98 EXPO has been curated to provide a space for the global faces of our industry to come together, connect, share, learn, and innovate.
