Tourism and Conventions are the lifeblood of Las Vegas. Accordingly, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority spends millions of dollars on national advertising to attract tourists and conventioneers. The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority also operates the Las Vegas Convention Center, the largest single-level convention facility in the United States with more than 1 million square feet of exhibit space. Shown above in one of the huge convention halls is Fernando Perez, the Sales Manager for the Convention Center. Born in Cuba, Perez has worked in the Hotel-Tourism field for over 23 years in places like Argentina, the Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo, Puerto Rico and Nevada.
