The return of travel demand and lingering signs of recovery have brought the focus of investors back onto the hospitality sector. While interest in mature markets across Europe, such as London and Paris, continues, there is a growing shift towards less mature markets in Central and Southeast Europe.
The potential of these markets is further strengthened by their diversity of cultural and heritage sites, with growing demand from travellers for experience and leisure, away from the hustle and bustle of big cities.
The IDEEA Hospitality Investment Forum will shed light on opportunities and developments in Southeast Europe by bringing European investors, policymakers, and industry stakeholders together to share their insights and regional plans.
Join the conversations with us in Athens on 26-27 September as we refocus to see opportunities for a new future in the region.

This was probably one of the best and most productive conferences I have attended recently. It was the right size, and the calibre of the attendees was great.

It's a great way for us to get to know people here on the ground, meet the people who have local expertise and that's a great way for us to source deals. Especially, as Principal Real Estate Europe is keen to invest here in the region and it's great opportunity for us to meet operators, people who actually know the market and will allow us to invest here in the region.
