Each year the CVB honors individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to convention and tourism success through the Spirit of Cincinnati USA Awards.
CES was nominated for the award by Jeff Simic, CVB's national sales manager, because of strong partnership between CES and the CVB to help bring new, important and large groups to the Cincinnati region.
