CventOn the heels of Marriott’s just-released Instant Booking tool, Cvent has announced a partnership that will give its customers the ability to instantly book simple and small meetings starting later this year.

The integration, which is expected to launch later this year, will allow Cvent Supplier Network customers to book participating MeetingPackage hotels and venues globally directly on the Cvent platform. The integration will addresses key sourcing questions instantly without planners needing to speak with a sales representative, including: Is the room available? Does it have the services I require for my meeting? And is it in my budget?

MeetingPackage software is already in use by venues in over 100 countries by hotel chains such as Radisson Hotel Group, Nordic Choice Hotels, Clermont Hotel Group and Leonardo Hotels.

More than $18 billion was sourced through Cvent’s sourcing networks in 2019.

“We’re thrilled to announce this integration with MeetingPackage, which benefits our mutual customers around the world,” said Jim Abramson, Cvent Vice President of Product Management. “As a leader in the hospitality technology space, we’re proud to partner with leading organizations like MeetingPackage to expand our platform and enable deeper collaboration between meeting planners and hotels and venues.”
