Engage!23 The Boca Raton
We are thrilled to be hosting our 2023 Engage! Summit at the storied The Boca Raton in Boca Raton, Florida December 11-14, 2023. A New Golden Era at The Boca Raton promises an unrivaled destination with bespoke enhancements to every guest experience, from exceptional accommodations to dynamic culinary concepts and innovative programming.
“The Boca Raton has a remarkable history as an internationally recognized landmark and a private escape for in-the-know travelers,” said Daniel A. Hostettler, President & CEO of The Boca Raton. “A New Golden Era will pay homage to the resort’s storied past while introducing innovative new amenities and experiences that will inspire both members and guests, and define The Boca Raton as one of the world’s most preeminent luxury resorts and private clubs.”
Engage! Summits are designed for committed wedding industry professionals who are looking for innovative ideas and practical solutions for strategic growth. Engage! is dedicated to gathering the best of the best, and this Summit is limited to 400 speakers and attendees. Careful attention is paid to creating an atmosphere that blends structure and downtime, allowing for candid networking in a non-client, non-competitive environment. The open exchange of ideas, information, and strategies for facing the challenges of the luxury wedding industry are hallmarks of the event — often imitated, never replicated.
