Wyndham International Inc. has joined the list of innovative hospitality firms that sponsor The Center for Hospitality Research at
Cornell University’s School of Administration. Under the sponsorship, Wyndham will support major research designed to
enhance operating practices in the hospitality industry.
“Wyndham is very pleased to join forces with one of the leading research institutes in our industry,” said Ted Teng, President

that help deliver practical benefits to managers in hospitality. We look forward to working with the Center on new research that
will help drive even more improvements in hospitality operations.”
Based in Dallas, Wyndham International offers upscale and luxury hotel and resort accommodations through proprietary lodging
brands and a management services division. It owns, leases, manages, and franchises hotels and resorts in the United States,
Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Europe, under core brands Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Wyndham Luxury Resorts and

“The Center is very pleased to welcome Wyndham to the growing roster of leading hospitality companies who have agreed to
join forces with the Cornell Hotel School,” said Gary Thompson, executive director of the Center. “Through the generous
support of our sponsors, we are able to conduct a wide range of studies across the full spectrum of the global hospitality field.”
Wyndham becomes the 10th enterprise to join with the Cornell’s Center for Hospitality Research in the last year, and the 35th
