Encore at Wynn Las Vegas
Perspective Group today announced that registration is officially open for the GNEX 2027 Conference, which will take place May 18–20, 2027, at the award-winning Encore Las Vegas. Returning to Las Vegas for the fourth time in the conference’s 17-year history, GNEX will once again bring together senior executives and decision-makers from across the global vacation ownership, hospitality, travel and leisure industries for three days of business, innovation and unparalleled relationship building.
The 2027 event marks more than a return to Las Vegas. It represents a return to Encore Las Vegas, one of the world’s most celebrated luxury resorts and the venue that hosted GNEX’s highly acclaimed 2022 conference. Encore, its Tower Suites and its luxury spa all hold the prestigious Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rating, while Wynn Resorts continues to lead the hospitality industry with more Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star awards than any independent hotel company worldwide.
Widely recognized as the vacation industry’s premier networking conference, GNEX, which stands for Growth Networking Experience, has spent the past 17 years redefining what a business conference can be. Rather than relying solely on traditional presentations and exhibition halls, GNEX has become known for its innovative conference format, combining thought-provoking executive panels, interactive workshops and immersive networking experiences that extend far beyond the meeting room. From unforgettable evening events to unique destination experiences, every aspect of GNEX is designed to foster meaningful business relationships in an environment that encourages authentic conversation and collaboration.
The 2027 conference also introduces an exciting new chapter for the event by moving from its traditional February or March schedule to May, creating opportunities for an entirely new lineup of outdoor experiences, networking activities and social events that take full advantage of Las Vegas during one of its most vibrant seasons.
While GNEX is intentionally hosted in a different destination each year to showcase premier global resorts and create fresh experiences for attendees, Las Vegas has remained one of the conference’s most requested destinations. Each previous Las Vegas edition has delivered a distinctly different experience, and organizers say the 2027 event has been specifically designed to raise the bar once again.
“GNEX has always been about bringing together the people who shape the future of our industry, but we’ve never believed networking should begin and end inside a conference room,” said Paul Mattimoe, President & CEO of Perspective Group. “For 17 years, we’ve continually challenged the traditional conference model by creating experiences that build genuine relationships, inspire new ideas and generate real business opportunities. Returning to Encore Las Vegas gives us the perfect stage to deliver what we believe will be our most dynamic and memorable GNEX Conference yet.”
The conference will feature an agenda of executive keynotes, leadership discussions, emerging industry trends, interactive educational sessions and carefully curated networking experiences, alongside the prestigious GNEX Awards program, recognizing excellence and innovation across the vacation ownership and hospitality sectors.
GNEX Conference attracts an international audience of C-suite executives, developers, exchange companies, technology providers, marketers, investors, hospitality professionals and industry partners, making it one of the most influential annual gatherings in the global vacation industry.
Registration for GNEX Conference 2027 is now open.
