Carnes Agency Supports Hunter Conference 2026
Carnes Agency supported the 37th annual Hunter Conference in 2026, marking the agency’s first year working alongside the Hunter organization during a significant period of evolution for the event.
The 2026 conference introduced a new venue, refreshed branding, and an updated format, helping usher in a new era for one of hospitality’s longest-running and most influential industry gatherings.
Carnes Agency’s support included:
Strategic marketing and communications
Media relations and industry outreach
Content development and conference promotion
Brand and messaging support
Executive visibility and thought leadership
Partnership and stakeholder engagement
The engagement was a natural fit for Carnes Agency’s deep hospitality experience and its growing work with conferences, associations, and industry organizations navigating change, growth, and repositioning.
The 2026 Hunter Conference also reinforced several themes central to the agency’s work: the importance of thoughtful brand evolution, meaningful industry relationships, strong programming, and creating platforms for the next generation of hospitality leaders.
Carnes Agency was proud to contribute to a milestone year for Hunter Conference and to support an organization that continues to bring together hotel owners, investors, operators, brands, students, and industry leaders from across hospitality.
