20th Annual IOA Conference
Miami, Florida, USA
A Message from IOAAs a profession committed to fairness, we appreciate hearing from members about holding annual conferences in Indianapolis for IOA2024 and Miami for IOA2025. And as an international organization, IOA is always trying to balance a variety of potentially competing needs that our members may not be aware of. We hope it is helpful to share some information that impacted IOA’s decisions to contract with hotels in Indianapolis and Miami to host our conference as well as information about hotel contracting generally:
We understand some members are concerned and disappointed. We share this information in an effort to illuminate the complexities of hotel location contracting. Should any location present an issue of physical safety for our members, participants, and staff, we will need to reassess as we get closer to the conference date.
Thank You to Our 2024 Partners
