Q: Where are the discounted hotel booking links?
A: CITE has contracted hotel blocks at the Manchester Grand Hyatt, Embassy Suites, Residence Inn, Westin Bayview, and Hilton Gaslamp. The discounted hotel booking links can be found in your registration confirmation. If you do not receive the e-mail, please contact conference@cite.org.
