InterContinental Hotels Group has unveiled a new program designed with small- and medium-sized enterprises in mind.
IHG Business Edge streamlines negotiation processes, rewards loyalty and consolidates data, bookings and content into an accessible customer portal, IHG says.
Development on the program took one year. In that time, input from 2,100 global small- and medium-sized enterprise customers was collected. The program had a pilot period with 300 companies from 17 countries. Before the official launch, more than 1,500 companies signed up to take part in the program.
To join the program, companies must have fewer than 250 employees, earn less than $50 million in revenue and spend at least $5,000 with IHG annually. Once a company is a member, the company’s travel manager can look at travel data including hotel spend, room nights and the average daily rate over the previous 12 months.
Travel managers for qualifying organizations can sign up at this link.

Nov 9, 2026Versatile and Vibrant, Modern Asti Spumante Is Not the Simple Party Fizz of the Past
I recall attending a New Year’s Eve party in my early 20s during which our host walked around at midnight filling guests’ flutes with celebratory toasts of “Champagne” or Asti Spumante. Now, the former wasn’t actually Champagne, just a cheaply made domestic Brut more suited to the budgets of people just entering the workforce. But those of us who liked our bubbly on the drier side preferred it to what we viewed as a sweet, simple Italian quaffer.
