Hotel & Area Information
With our conference just a couple of weeks away, we thought we’d put together some visitor information for your benefit. The conference will be held at the Hyatt Regency at the Denver Tech Center. The Denver Tech Center (DTC) is the main corporate office park area that serves the greater Denver area. The DTC is located about 15 miles southeast of Denver along Interstate 25. It is approximately 25 miles from Denver International Airport. Directly to the west is the inviting view of the Colorado Rockies & front range foothills.
