Director’s Welcome

The Center for Hospitality Research’s goal is to produce and disseminate high-impact applied research relevant to today and tomorrow’s hospitality industry.

To achieve this, the CHR brings together researchers, students, and executives to jointly explore critical issues that face the modern hospitality industry. Thanks to the generous support of our sponsors, we can then bring the results of the leading research to the entire hospitality industry at no charge.

I believe you will find the information available here to be thought provoking and relevant.

Researchers, I invite you to send a query regarding potential research ideas and publication. Practitioners, I encourage you to send me your thoughts and ideas.

If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions regarding the CHR, please feel free to contact me directly at lc29@cornell.edu.
