4 NETWORKING EVENTS AND KEY HIGHLIGHTS LUNCHES IHIF lunches are invaluable parts of the fantastic networking opportunities offered over the three-day conference. They not only offer first-class catering from our host hotel but are a great opportunity to develop new potential business partners and share time with important existing contacts. Lunch on Tuesday 7 March will be a networking buffet and on Wednesday 8 March will be a sit-down, three-course meal, with many tables being hosted by the IHIF Sponsors and Patrons. EVENING RECEPTIONS THE EXHIBITION Special 20th Birthday Party MONDAY 6 MARCH 19:00 21:00 One of the things that we should celebrate the most at our special 20th anniversary is that it is a truly global gathering. Over IHIF s 20 years in existence there has been an ever-increasing number of nationalities; so much so that now over 80 countries are represented. For our opening night reception, attendees will experience a trip around the globe: a walk through the exhibition hall to experience flavours from all around the world, a celebration of culture, diversity and the coming together of so many nations. We hope you will join us for this truly memorable industry reception. Gala Networking Reception TUESDAY 7 MARCH 18:30 20:30 HOSTED BY THE INTERCONTINENTAL BERLIN Our conference hosts never fail to surprise and spoil IHIF attendees and to deliver the utmost in true InterContinental-style hospitality each year. MONDAY 6, TUESDAY 7 MARCH AND WEDNESDAY 8 MARCH The Sponsors of IHIF are the leading companies in our industry. The Sponsors Exhibition is a unique opportunity for these companies to showcase a wide variety of products, services and business opportunities. The exhibition hall is one of the best networking opportunities you will find anywhere, as it is a place for you to meet senior representatives from the industry s leading providers, including: hotel chains, serviced apartments, real estate agents, advisors, banks, investors, consultants, lawyers, designers, architects, financiers, technology services, and destinations. The hospitality industry is about getting together, talking to your peers, your colleagues, even your competitors to hear what they are doing. I think the CEOs attend for the very same reason I do you hear what your competitors are doing, but most importantly, you get to say what you are doing. IHIF enables you to do that.
