A major new event bringing together international investors, government ministers and destinations will be held at WTM London – the leading global event for the travel industry.

Called ‘IHIF at WTM London: Ministers’ Destination Investment Symposium’, it is being organised with the International Hotel Investment Forum Berlin (IHIF) and the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO).

Building on WTM London’s expertise within the international travel industry and IHIF Berlin’s leadership in hospitality investment, the symposium is open to investors, ministers and their aides, city mayors, tourism board directors and senior government officials.

Several major investors have already signed up to attend the inaugural event, including representatives from Goldman Sachs, Barings Real Estate Europe and Invesco Real Estate.

The symposium will be introduced by speakers from WTM London and Questex, the global business information company that runs IHIF Berlin.

The symposium will close with a networking reception.

IHIF at WTM London: Ministers’ Destination Investment Symposium will take place on November 7 from 14.30 to 17.30 at Platinum Suite 3.
