At Hyatt, we share a simple but powerful purpose: we care for people so they can be their best. Since our founding in 1957, we’ve held fast to the belief that who people are matters just as much as how they are. After all, hospitality is a people business – one defined by empathy, opportunity, and our commitment to be a force for good.
Founded in 1957 by Jay Pritzker, Hyatt began as a small motor lodge near Los Angeles International Airport, built on the belief that hospitality brings people together. What set Hyatt apart then – and still does today – is its heart and its deep belief in caring for people to be their best. Today, that spirit has guided Hyatt’s evolution to a global hospitality leader with more than 1,450 hotels and all-inclusive resorts across over 80 countries on six continents, spanning more than 30 global brands within the World of Hyatt portfolio.
Deeply embedded across all areas of our business, World of Care represents our global approach to advancing care for the planet, people and responsible business.
Our World of Care goals and priorities reflect what matters most to our colleagues, guests, customers, owners, investors and communities.
The integration of World of Care into our Board oversight further strengthens our commitment and guides the initiatives that advance these priorities. Explore more of our World of Care stories on the Hyatt Newsroom.
