NEW YORK—Those attending HX: The Hotel Experience or Boutique Design New York (BDNY) who are looking for educational sessions related to green design or operations will have to attend BDNY this year. HX, as of October 25, has just three educational sessions listed on its website and none of them have green topics. Both shows will be held November 14 to 15 at the Javits Center in New York. HX currently has fewer than 50 exhibitors listed on its website and BDNY in the hundreds—proof that the pandemic is still impacting the willingness of businesses to exhibit and travel.

Here then is the “green” conference schedule for BDNY (all green sessions on Sunday):

Sunday, November 14, 11 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
