HOSPA Chief Executive Carl Weldon said: “At HOSPA, we pride ourselves on being at the cutting edge of hospitality technology. In line with this objective, we are delighted to be using the iRiS Delegate app at HOSPACE 2013 – enabling delegates to gain even greater ‘state-of-the-art’ interactive benefit from the most prestigious annual gathering of like-minded hospitality practitioners in the UK. The app will demonstrate how such a comprehensive and innovative virtual event management solution can enhance the experience of hotel and conference guests and organisers alike.”

The app is a full featured event guide, personal conference planner and networking tool which allows delegates to view the conference schedule and export it to right into their device’s calendar app, access venue information, view attendee lists with LinkedIn profile links and manage documents, presentations and personal notes from each session.

A unique messaging feature allows event organizers to message delegates and delegates can also create quick polls during a session for voting. Social media integration allows delegates to share images and content from the event via Twitter and Facebook through the app’s share feature.

“ The new iRiS Delegate app is the perfect fit for HOSPACE 2013. It will enable the attendees to make the most of this unique event by interacting with the organizers and networking with delegates in a brand new way. They will be able to share content and all the information they need at their fingertips. ” Commented Jason Jefferys, CEO of iRiS Software Systems.
