This exciting 800-room hotel, located on Georgia Street near Capitol Avenue, is one of only four Signia properties in the country and is already halfway to completion. Kyle will share an inside look at the hotel’s features and amenities and discuss how this landmark project will impact the downtown Indianapolis hotel market.

He recently helped launch the Signia by Hilton in Atlanta and previously spent much of his career with Hyatt Hotels & Resorts, working in cities including Chicago, Calgary, Phoenix, San Antonio, and Atlanta.

A central Illinois native and Roosevelt University graduate, Kyle is excited to return to his Midwest roots and is already impressed by Indianapolis’s energy and growth, believing it to be the “next best thing” in the meetings and events industry.
