Beware of external hotel booking agencies

The FOCIS 2026 hotel is the San Francisco Marriott Marquis and is the official and only FOCIS-endorsed means to book accommodations is through the link shown above.

Importantly, FOCIS does not outsource its hotel accommodations reservations. Companies or individuals are sending phishing emails to some FOCIS members and FOCIS Annual Meeting attendees claiming to be able to book their accommodations. This is a common – albeit unwanted – occurrence for conferences and trade shows.

To clarify, no third party company is authorized to arrange hotel accommodations for our events, nor is FOCIS in any way generating these messages.

If you receive such an email, please do not respond. By responding–even with a request to unsubscribe–you confirm that your email address is a valid one, which may increase the likelihood that you’ll be contacted again.

Should you have any questions, please contact the FOCIS Executive Office at +1 414-359-1670 or info@focisnet.org.
