Brailsford & Dunlavey and Project Management Advisors Launch "Hospitality Insights"

New industry newsletter to deliver timely, actionable intelligence on the hospitality landscape


April 28, 2026, Washington, D.C.— Brailsford & Dunlavey (B&D) and Project Management Advisors (PMA) today announced the launch of Hospitality Insights, a new bi-monthly newsletter designed to deliver timely, actionable intelligence on the evolving hospitality landscape. The publication marks a key milestone following the recent merger of B&D and PMA, bringing together complementary strengths in development advisory, strategic planning, and project execution.

Positioned at the intersection of strategy and delivery, Hospitality Insights will provide owners, developers, investors, and operators with a forward-looking perspective on the forces shaping hospitality assets—from early visioning through operations. Each issue will feature thought leadership, project spotlights, expert interviews, and curated insights on industry trends impacting the built environment.

“The hospitality industry is becoming more complex, more experiential, and more capital-intensive,” said Mark Knott, Vice President and Hospitality Leader. “We launched Hospitality Insights to cut through that complexity by offering practical, real-world perspectives drawn from active projects and client challenges. Our goal is to help industry leaders make smarter decisions that translate into unique guest experiences and ultimately better returns.”

The debut issue underscores this mission, exploring topics such as logistics-driven development in remote markets, emerging investment trends, and lessons learned from large-scale hospitality projects. It also highlights how the combined capabilities of B&D and PMA are enabling a more integrated approach by aligning strategy, planning, and execution to unlock value across the project lifecycle.

By bringing together deep sector expertise with a full lifecycle advisory platform, we’re uniquely positioned to deliver insights that are not only thoughtful, but actionable. This is about equipping our clients and partners with clarity in a rapidly evolving market.”
