Rethink what is – shape what can be

Hardly any other topic is as diverse – and as fast moving – as hospitality investment. It is important to start thinking about the end of the journey when you take the first step. The trick is to set the course at the beginning in such a way that you’re ready to address the megatrends of the future by the end. In our 2024 event programme, we’ll be taking a deep dive into the different backgrounds while spotlighting the opportunities around today that are going to shape our industry tomorrow.
