Connect, invest, and lead the future of hospitality investment

The International Hospitality Investment Forum (IHIF EMEA) is the premier meeting place for hospitality investment in EMEA. It provides unparalleled insights into why hospitality and living sectors have remained top choices for lenders and investors, even amid high interest rates impacting other commercial real estate assets.

The event is the largest assembly of hospitality investors, with over 600 investors and $343 billion in assets under management. IHIF EMEA remains unmatched in scale and influence.

As a Limited Partner (LP) you may be unlikely to join for the entire conference but we’ve created focused pathways to help you Ideate, Invest, and Perform, ensuring they can prioritize the most relevant sessions for your goals.

Eligible attendees can apply for a complimentary Limited Partners (LP) pass, designed for institutional investors, sovereign wealth funds, and pension funds, providing access to exclusive networking and industry insights.
