The Hospitality Business Society is a student-run club under NYU’s Jonathan M. Tisch Center. The organization is primarily for hotel and tourism management undergraduate majors but is open to students of all majors. HBS serves as a resource to connect our student members with New York’s dominant hospitality industry through various events and initiatives, which span the realms of education, community service, career advancement, industry relations, and social networking. We organize biannual Internship Fairs, announce professional and volunteer opportunities, and establish both student and alumni relationships through our mentorship program. General meetings typically occur on a monthly basis, and a variety of our events are organized for both professional and social purposes. These efforts will allow students to build meaningful professional relationships with NYU faculty, industry professionals, and local community members. HBS was once known as the Pineapple Society, which honored the pineapple as a symbol of the hospitality industry.
