The HBAA represents a collective industry voice for both agents and hotels and venues.

Members of the HBAA provide cost savings and management information to the corporate market - Over 60 of the UK's leading booking agents make up the association; their consolidated buying power exceeds £900m per annum.  In addition over 120 Hotel and venue companies are partner members.

Through its Code of Conduct the HBAA has defined best practice in the procurement and booking of accommodation, conferences, events and training sessions to protect the interests of Clients, venues and Agencies.

The HBAA provides the Forum where Industry trends and topics are debated and discussed.  It also provides education through an active and varied Training programme, with courses designed to benefit both agencies and venues - which creates a uniquely stimulating learning environment.

Committees and Working parties develop initiatives in a range of areas, including Technology and CSR.

Members and Partners network regularly through a calendar of focussed business and social events.
