Alternative accommodations, short-term rentals, vacation rentals—however you label this fast-growing lodging sector—there’s no denying its impact on travel. The Phocuswright Conference, to be held in Los Angeles, November 13-15, will address the increasing interest in this industry with sessions with executives from Airbnb, Expedia Group, Booking Holdings, and more.

As a result, these executives will address profitability, consolidation, technology, scalability and evolving business models.
