An individual’s deposit is refundable to that individual if the Hotel receives notice of an individual’s cancellation at least 48 hours prior to scheduled arrival.Conference attendance cancellations. Please notify Event Manager Charlotte Somers of an attendance cancellation before Thursday, August 30 so we can plan accordingly. Our meals and events are assigned seating and arrangements must be made for your absence. Call or text 214-436-6789 or e-mail.
Average September weather in Seattle, Washington is a high of 70 degrees and a low of 53 degrees. **Dress for the entire conference is casual.
The CIO Summit is not a commercial endeavor, but a high level meeting for CIOs from around the world--there are a limited number of sponsorships. We do not allow any formal sponsor presentations or sales pitches, but we will allow the sponsors to briefly welcome the attendees to the Summit and join us at conference events and functions. Again, this will not be a sales conference, but a closed-door conference for CIOs to discuss the issues at hand without interruption or unsolicited information.
Hospitality Upgrade will be offering complimentary limo transfers from Sea-Tac to the Motif Seattle. To take advantage of this service, please click here to e-mail your itinerary (arrival date, flight number, airline, arrival time, and your cell number in case the driver needs to locate you) to Charlotte Somers by August 22, 2018.
