Groups360™ Welcomes Vice President of Brand Engagement
Former Hotelier and Tech Veteran Returns to Groups360 to Lead Hotel Partnerships, Accepts Appointment to HSMAI Sales Advisory Board

Groups360™, a leading online global marketplace for meetings, has expanded its leadership team with the return of David O'Donohoe as its Vice President of Brand Engagement. In his new role, O'Donohoe will manage engagement of hotel brands with Groups360. O'Donohoe also recently accepted an appointment to the Hospitality Sales and Marketing Association International (HSMAI) Sales Advisory Board, the industry's leading advocate for intelligent, sustainable hotel revenue growth.
O'Donohoe's career combines more than twenty-five years of experience as a hotelier for brands like Sheraton and formerly Starwood as well as leadership for meetings management company StarCite.
"I've been privileged to work with, consult with and serve hoteliers and hotel companies, and for the past several years, I have heard their major point of concern loud and clear: Help us control the increasing cost of distribution while delivering a great shopping experience for our consumers," said O'Donohoe. "I re-joined Groups360 because it is a company that has listened very carefully to those concerns, built and presented a state-of-the-art, unbiased and disruptive technology that will greatly assist hoteliers in successfully addressing many of the significant issues they face."
As the former vice president of hospitality sales and strategy for Groups360, O'Donohoe is well positioned to take Groups360 into its next stage of growth.
"Part of making group travel simple is making sure our meeting planner customers have access to unbiased information about the destinations and the properties they're considering," said Flors. "While we already have more than 170,000 hotel properties active in our marketplace, David's reprised role will allow us to continue to grow that number in a way that benefits hotels and planners alike."
