Ballard Spahr and LaTour Hotels and Resorts sponsor Fractional Summit USA 2011

Leading luxury fractional ownership brand and fractional conference organiser Fractional Life is delighted to announce that leading law firm Ballard Spahr and LaTour Hotels and Resorts are the latest companies to sign up as sponsors for Fractional Summit USA 2011.

Ballard Spahr partner Chris Payne, who will also be one of the speakers at the event said: “Conferences such as Fractional Summit USA, which facilitate the sharing of best practices within the fractional real estate industry, are extremely useful and productive events. We were impressed with the inaugural Miami conference and are delighted to support Fractional Summit 2011.”

Sarah Rezak, director of business development at LaTour Hotels and Resorts, and another event speaker, said: “Last year's inaugural Fractional Summit USA was a great success, and we are very pleased to be sponsoring the conference and supporting its growth.”

Fractional Summit USA 2010 http://www.fractionaltrade.com/videos/ saw a host of conferencing innovations including the first ever fractional owners' panel, a 'speed-dating' business card swap, an extensive new media focus including video and mobile marketing, and an evening of exquisite rum tasting. The 2011 event will feature further innovations to build on the inaugural conference's strong foundations.

Conference host Piers Brown said: “We are delighted to welcome two prestigious names in the fractional industry as sponsors for Fractional Summit USA 2011. The fact that we are attracting new sponsors while last year's sponsors have also renewed their support is a clear indication that our Miami event is firmly on the map as the hottest ticket in the industry.”

It was quite useful to see so many players in the fractional industry in one place. The industry is moving fast; staying in touch with those driving those changes is always helpful.”
Byrne Murphy, Kitebrook Partners

The conference was a tremendous success by all measures.  For an inaugural conference, Fractional Life was able to identify and ensure attendance from key industry participants.  The thoughtful agenda attracted a strong turnout, even in a challenging market environment.   The outside the box innovations such as an owners panel really added a nice dimension to the discussions.  Exclusive Resorts looks forward to participating in future Fractional Summit conferences.
