Meetings technology provider Worktopia, which specializes in online booking solutions for small and virtual meetings, has expanded its service to also allow the sourcing of larger meetings, it announced this week.
With the latest edition of its Universal Meeting Solution (UMS), Worktopia's signature product, meeting planners can now book venues for meetings of up to 1,000 attendees via electronic RFP, which means they can now source small, large, onsite and virtual meetings using a single tool.
"Large meeting RFP sourcing tools have, until now, offered static listings, akin to yellow pages advertising," said Worktopia CEO John Arenas. "Worktopia's organic search algorithm means meeting planners don't have to wade through sponsored advertising in the search results, and can send multiple RFPs, negotiate with or book venues that match their specific meeting search criteria. Up-front filtering for preferred suppliers and negotiated rates can also be controlled centrally with policy settings."
Worktopia's latest UMS version also includes a new series of hotel content feeds that meeting planners can use to instantly access property information, rates and availability from leading hotel brands, conference centers and video conferencing studios.
