Our Company

Founded in 1988,

Newport Hospitality was one of the first Destination Management Companies in Rhode Island. If you have not already heard, we are delighted to share that Newport Hospitality has entered into a strategic partnership with Corinthian Events in a move that will enable both firms to create a single leading force in New England and expand our reach for clients seeking exceptional corporate and specialty events.

With this acquisition, Corinthian Events and Newport Hospitality have taken our DMC Network motto, “We’re Here for You!” to a whole new level of excellence.

In 2006 Newport Hospitality was selected to become a part of the DMC Network, a worldwide alliance of independently owned Destination Management Companies. In April 2008 Laurie became an equity partner in the new DMC Network, LLC and was also elected to their Board of Managers.

In February 2007, Newport Hospitality was recognized for meeting the ADMC (Accredited Destination Management Company) standards from the ADME Certification and Accreditation Board. This made Newport Hospitality the first and only accredited DMC in Rhode Island and all of New England. In the first year, Newport Hospitality along with only 23 other DMCs in the country was awarded this prestigious accreditation and became a Charter ADMC.

Today, Newport Hospitality's professional team combines many years of experience and creativity in designing, coordinating, and executing meetings, events and activities for corporate, conventions, and incentive programs. Specializing in the Rhode Island region, Newport Hospitality is the best known destination expert with their extensive local knowledge and trusted relationships.
