Bio
H. Mark Daley III is the founder and CEO of The Generation Companies, which he established in 1996. He focuses on creating value through progressive lodging development and customer service-oriented operations by partnering with premier extended-stay brands and franchisors. Under his leadership, Generation completed a $215 million recapitalization of its hotel portfolio in October 2016, which he described as "a transformative transaction for Generation" that provided the company with an institutional-caliber balance sheet, a scalable platform, and dedicated growth capital. Daley continues a fifty-year family tradition in the hospitality industry, as his grandfather, Hugh M. Daley Sr., was one of the original Holiday Inn franchisees in 1959.
