LAS VEGAS, NV — JULY 11, 2023 — The American Hotel & Lodging Association (AHLA), the largest hotel association in the U.S. representing all segments of the industry nationwide, has announced BluIP as a recipient of the organization’s inaugural AHLA Technology Acceleration Award.
The annual AHLA Technology Acceleration Award recognizes companies that have taken specific steps to advance innovation in hospitality. This year, the award showcased companies that have adopted HTNG Express, a new solution that shortens the process for post-booking hotel property management system integrations from months to just days.

AHLA Chief Technology Officer Michael Blake commented, “AHLA created this recognition program to award leading technology companies who are demonstrating their industry commitment to advancement, adoption, and acceleration.” Blake added, “BluIP’s implementation of HTNG Express proves a significant contribution in helping move hospitality forward.”
