Hotel and Travel
Our venue for Future Trends 2008 has been moved! |
The original venue, The Fontainebleau Resort in Miami, who has been undergoing a complete transformation, will unfortunately not be completely done in time for our meeting – so we have worked with the team at Fontainebleau and our friends at the Loews Miami Beach to relocate the meeting entirely – ensuring a great Future Trends 2008 event and placing you in an equally great facility.
The new location for Future Trends is the Loews Miami Beach Hotel. The hotel details are as follows:
| Loews Miami Beach Hotel 1601 Collins Avenue Miami Beach, Florida 33139 Phone: (305) 604-1601 Fax: (305) 604-3999 *This number is for general information only. www.loewshotels.com/en/Hotels | .jpg) |

For air travel
the closest airport for this event will remain unchanged (Miami International Airport) so no air tickets will need to be changed.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and wanted to give you advance notice to ensure a smooth transition for all. Future messaging about this event will include the hotel venue information and we will also be contacting you by phone to ensure that this message has been received.
We look forward to greeting you this November at the fabulous Loews Resort and thank you again for your attention to this important message.
