Bangkok (Thailand) – March 15, 2018 (travelindex.com) – Questex Hospitality Group, a leading international conference organizer, will host the highly anticipated return of the Asia Pacific Hotel Investment Conference (APHIC) from June 4-6, 2018. The three-day event will take place at the JW Marriott Hotel Bangkok, Thailand.

Located in one of the most important tourism centers in the Asia-Pacific region, APHIC offers hotel investors, owners, operators and other stakeholders the perfect platform to explore and initiate their next business opportunities.

Over the past two years, investment opportunities in the hotel sector in the Asia-Pacific region have changed significantly. New challenges for the industry include a shortage of available properties, high land prices in key destinations, industry consolidation, increasing brand diversity, changes in the distribution landscape, and new government regulations.

In this ambitious pursuit of ROI, APHIC will foster dialogue between 200 hotel owners/investors, operators, real estate developers, bankers/financiers, political decision-makers, designers/architects and urban planners in the Asia-Pacific region.

Among the international speakers enriching this year's event are key players in the industry such as FICO Corporation, TCC Land Asset World, Royal Group of Companies, Ascendas Hospitality Trust, Ireka Development Management, ARCH Capital Management, Origin, property PCL, Lodgis Hospitality, HKR international, CIMB Investment Bank, Zerin Properties and the Ovolo Group.

These industry leaders will share their expert insights and experience on increasing premium returns across a wide range of risk profiles. Discussions at the three-day conference will focus on the following topics: Investment Intelligence – an overview of trends and opportunities; Investment Strategies – partnerships, products, and positioning; Tactical Investing – all about the numbers; and Market Outlook – seizing opportunities and overcoming challenges.

Gavin Faull, Chairman and President of Swiss-Belhotel International, said: “APHIC in Bangkok was once again a successful event and provided an excellent opportunity to meet investors and other professionals in the hotel industry. Swiss-Belhotel International was able to establish valuable contacts and develop numerous promising approaches that will lead to profitable business relationships. This would not have been possible without APHIC.”
