The Providence Group Leader to Address Industry Conferences
Duxbury, MA � February 2006 � Jed C. Heller, president of The Providence Group, a resort management consulting firm, will be a speaker at March annual meetings of the Hotel Investment Conference and the American Resort Development Association. In addition, he will be a delegate to the Asian American Hotel Owners Association meeting in Las Vegas, Mar 22-24.

At the 18th Annual Hotel Investment Conference to be held Mar. 12-14 at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia in Atlanta, Heller�s remarks will address current challenges and opportunities in the hospitality industry.

At the American Resort Development Association�s annual conference and exposition at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas, March 25-30, Heller will moderate a panel discussion on Maximizing Association Income. The session will feature new ideas for rentals, resales, and maintenance fee receivables.

�This is a wonderful opportunity to give back to the industry,� Heller says. �I�m thrilled to be able to share what I�ve learned working with leading-edge timeshare, hotel, and mixed-use developers over the past three decades.�

Recent Providence Group assignments stretch across the United States. In Hawaii, Heller is consulting with a hundred-room hotel on its conversion to a condo hotel. The project�s principal, John Stott, says, �given the location in Maui, the opportunity is to good to pass up.� To the far south, Heller is working with a luxury villa rental concept in Barbados through TPG�s Villa Consultants International division. And closer to home, TPG is assisting Thomas Pugliese with a timeshare development in Coastal Maine.
