In this conversation, we chat to Sandy Biback, who has been a member of the conference/business/event business for over 35 years. She has, along the way, worked for planning companies, a hotel and owned her own professional planning consulting company since January 1990.

Sandy for about 15 years, taught hospitality and conference management at several colleges. She has served on countless boards within professional
associations. She has collaborated on industry text books. Sandy has spoken at many industry events; has been published widely. Along the way she has continued to learn, and grow within her own profession. She has won several awards for her work, her teaching and her mentoring.

Aligned with her retirement in 2017, she began researching the horrors of sex trafficking and realized it WAS happening in hotels at all levels; at conferences; at sporting events. She formed Meeting Professionals Against Human Trafficking (www.mpaht.com) as a grassroots organization with a group of passionate professionals, to create awareness and collaboration between planners and hotels. Ultimately MPAHT wants to see every planner ask about training of every hotel they intend to use AND to see every hotel have training in place for all staff.

Sandy was named a 2019 Smart Women in Meetings Award winner in the
Visionary category. This prestigious awards platform honors women who are
making significant impacts on the meetings industry and inspiring female meeting ambassadors worldwide.
