HOT aims to break from tradition with a no-nonsense "Unconference" for the hospitality industry. There’s no fluff, no formalities — just honest conversations and practical strategies that drive real results. It's a space dedicated to meaningful dialogue, real stories, and actionable insights. It's where attendees, from leaders to newcomers, can come together to exchange ideas, learn, and collaborate for a brighter future for Europe's hospitality industry.

What are we great at?

Uniting the impossible – bringing together the private sector and public sector actors to forge strategies for mutual benefits of all involved for sustainable economic growth. Hotels Tomorrow sees itself as a future-orientated next-gen event for the European hospitality industry, with the aim to strengthen it and make it more resilient.

How do we do it?

HOT is an interactive pan-European hospitality event with immersive content, new perspectives and provocative speakers, who understand what drives the business and can actively involve participants.

3

Why do it at all?

To strengthen Europe’s hospitality business. Europe is the powerhouse in global tourism, the diversity of its countries is the key magnet for tourists. Nevertheless, competition and common challenges remain, so Europe needs to be explained time and again, to engage with the diverse structures, cultures and the European Union. Only then will hospitality concepts work.

Audience and participants.

The HOT event is aimed at European and international hospitality investors, owners, operators, developers and founding sources, policy makers, industry specialists that understand all factors influencing the European hotel investment climate.

Sharing is caring.

Speakers will share their knowledge, experience and foresight and will not hold back in criticizing, but equally encouraging the industry’s key players on how to move ahead successfully.

Interaction and debate.

Ask questions, get answers, look for solutions. Industry insiders, movers and shakers, experts will shed a light on external factors and politicians will share the stage to showcase best practices, market and industry data that will serve as a foundation to finding solutions.

Feeding the mind.

Egos take a back seat at HOT. The topics are “on stage”, moderated and inspired by specialist experts and journalists with content from all over Europe: Western Europe including UK/Ireland, South-East Europe, the Nordics down to the Mediterranean.

Room for discussion.

The hospitality industry is currently undergoing a massive upheaval; traditional strategies and concept patterns are falling into disarray; unknown new ideas are emerging at such a rapid pace that even well-organised companies are unable to keep up. This is why HOT creates free space for complex topics that require answers and orientation.

Delve deeper.

At HOT, keywords are, among others: investments, traditional and alternative financing, real estate, PPP/Private Public Partnerships, EU & ESG, dealmaking, disruption, innovation/technology, infrastructure and destinations, markets and people, new gen, new supply, new living segments....
