Join us for a unique opportunity to meet your peers and engage with hotel leaders.

Thailand’s hotel distribution landscape is evolving rapidly. This session is a data-rich sharing for an overview of the latest industry performance and key B2B trends.We’ll cut through the complexity to show how smart technology can help you prioritize high-performing channels while seamlessly managing your entire distribution network.
Attendee Takeaways:
1. A clear picture of Thailand’s latest hospitality data and market shifts
2. A strategic approach to focus on key channels and automate broader distribution
3. Practical knowledge of tools that streamline rate and inventory management

For today’s hospitality commercial team, the greatest untapped opportunity lies in bridging the “Rebooking Paradox.” While guest satisfaction in APAC remains consistently high, loyalty is lagging—with only 37% of guests currently rebooking the same hotel. This gap represents millions in lost revenue potential that can only be reclaimed by moving beyond “one-size-fits-all” service toward a data-driven, “spend-ready” guest journey. This session explores how to unify siloed data to engineer a seamless, high-margin journey that turns one-time visitors into lifelong advocates.

Update from HSMAI on what’s happening in your location and upcoming events, education and publications.

Insights from a Global Meeting Planner explores the latest MICE trends, how global meeting planners work, and the perspectives shaping decisions across different regions. The session reveals real, often unseen insights into how planners think, evaluate value, and select destinations. It also highlights what hoteliers can do better to align with these expectations and seize emerging opportunities. By understanding these dynamics, Thailand can adapt to an increasingly competitive landscape and take advantage of the evolving global environment.

An insightful discussion on 2026 corporate travel with a strong Thailand and Southeast Asia focus, featuring industry leaders. We’ll unpack shifting demand across Bangkok and key SEA markets, evolving traveler expectations, and regional disruptions, while exploring how technology is reshaping distribution and connectivity. Expect sharp perspectives, local market insights, and practical takeaways to navigate what’s next in the region.

All session speakers and attendees debrief for a group robust discussion on topics presented.

The panel discussion will look at how hospitality businesses can better connect the dots between attraction, onboarding, development and retention, and examine where exactly things tend to fall apart.
With the combined knowledge from operators, recruitment tech providers, and an employment solicitor, our panel will share practical legal advice on hiring in hospitality, including what you need to know about current legislation and staying compliant. Exploring how smarter systems and clearer pathways can help reduce early attrition and set teams up for long-term success.

IoH South West | How the Hospitality industry and higher education can work in symphony
2026-03-18 15:00 - 16:00 (Europe/London) | IoH Online
Webinar | How the Hospitality industry and higher education can work in symphony
Join the IoH South West Region for a CPD webinar on hospitality and higher education.
Speaker: Dr Richard Parkman BSc (Hons), MSc, PhD, PGCE, PGCert, CBME, FIH, Associate Head Plymouth Business School (International & Partnerships), Associate Professor in
Transnational Education & Management Plymouth Business School.
The hospitality education sector plays a crucial role in developing a skilled workforce needed to sustain a dynamic, global hospitality industry. As the sector evolves in response to technological change, shifting consumer expectations, and increasing competition, hospitality education must remain closely aligned with real-world practice to stay relevant. This requires meaningful engagement from industry partners who can provide current insights, placement opportunities, and collaborative learning experiences that mirror contemporary operational challenges. Strong industry–education partnerships ensure that hospitality graduates are not only academically prepared but also equipped with the practical skills, professional behaviours, and innovative thinking that employers demand. In turn, such collaboration supports the long-term growth, resilience, and competitiveness of the hospitality sector itself.
This webinar is free for members and non-members.

The format for the event is a mix of Knowledge Exchange & Networking. 🥂
Join us for a unique opportunity to meet your peers and engage with hotel leaders.

Powered by TrustYou’s guest sentiment insights, this presentation compares Hong Kong with major APAC destinations across 2024 and 2025, drawing on tens of thousands of reviews from leading platforms including Ctrip, Booking.com, and Google to reveal competitive signals and commercial implications for hotel leaders.

Event tourism is an experience economy that involves both the demand (travelers motivated to attend) and supply (strategic development and marketing of events) to boost local economies, enhance destination image, and reduce seasonality.
Black Pink took the town by storm earlier this year, and everyone in the hotel industry wanted more. What will it take to engage with fans and organizers to ensure we have a competitive pipeline, and how can the hotel industry play a role?
We invited Mr. William Lo, Director of HK company VIVID Centum International to share with us what is planned and what it takes to have continuous successful events coming to Hong Kong.
VIVID Centum is the global strategic partner of MBC Plus, one of the leading South Korean television and radio broadcasters. In August 2025, they hosted “All the K Pop Stage” at Venetian Arena Macau, where K-Pop girl group i-dle led the performance, along with Taemin, Kep1er, NOWZ & KickFlip. The company will host different signature events and concerts worldwide this year and next.

For today’s hospitality commercial team, the greatest untapped opportunity lies in bridging the “Rebooking Paradox.” While guest satisfaction in APAC remains consistently high, loyalty is lagging—with only 37% of guests currently rebooking the same hotel. This gap represents millions in lost revenue potential that can only be reclaimed by moving beyond “one-size-fits-all” service toward a data-driven, “spend-ready” guest journey. This session explores how to unify siloed data into Intelligent Guest Profiles to engineer a seamless, high-margin journey that turns one-time visitors into lifelong advocates.

This panel explores how hoteliers can unlock greater value from OTA partnerships beyond standard master agreements. Industry leaders will discuss strategies to strengthen collaboration with global and local OTAs, optimize market-specific distribution partnerships, and drive incremental revenue while maintaining rate integrity and channel balance. The session will share practical insights on leveraging local OTA capabilities, commercial flexibility, and joint growth opportunities to maximize performance in today’s evolving distribution landscape.

Update from HSMAI on what’s happening in your location and upcoming events, education and publications.

Discover how to maximize TRevPar to enhance the guest journey while turning data into scalable, revenue-generating outcomes.

CVs that Work in 2026: Selling Yourself in Hospitality’s New Era
2026-02-24 10:00 - 11:00 (Europe/London) | Online Webinar Institute of Hospitality
CVs in hospitality are changing. In a sector shaped by skills shortages, evolving roles, technology, and shifting expectations, standing out on paper now requires far more than listing job titles and responsibilities.
This webinar explores what makes a CV effective in 2026, focusing on how hospitality professionals can clearly communicate their value, potential, and professional identity. From senior leadership and operational insight to academic perspective and student experience, the panel will examine how recruitment expectations are changing and what employers are really looking for.
Designed as a practical and CPD-eligible session, the discussion will offer clear guidance for professionals at different stages of their career, helping attendees better position themselves in hospitality’s new era.
Our expert panel, hosted by our Commercial Manager Sidiqa Hazara AIH will be:

Basel Jabri MIH – Montcalm Collection
Marco Cagnetta – Vetara Matera
Majda El Azzouzy – Hospitality Student

Institute of Hospitality webinars are free for our members, and count towards your CPD activity.

Alternatively, there will be a recording of this webinar available on our website shortly after 11.00am.*****
Join us on 10 February for a webinar on AI and Automation in Hospitality
AI automation is no longer a future concept, it is already reshaping how hospitality businesses operate, make decisions, and serve their people and guests.
This panel discussion explores how AI automation can be applied practically across hospitality, from operational efficiency and systems integration to commercial performance and human impact. Rather than focusing on hype or technical jargon, the session will look at real-world use cases, leadership considerations, and the balance between technology, people, and culture.
Bringing together perspectives from executive leadership, AI and ERP implementation, academic research, and commercial strategy, the discussion will examine what hospitality leaders need to understand now, what mistakes to avoid, and how to approach AI automation responsibly and effectively.
Our panel:

Alexander Muir FIH – Anglia Ruskin
Neha Dubey – AI User Relationship Researcher
