Online registration is now open for the sixth Hotel Investment Conference
Africa (HICA), taking place from May 9-11 at the Southern Sun Elangeni Hotel in
Durban.
The conference is convened by the Tourism Business Council of South Africa
(TBCSA) in partnership with the Department of Economic Development and Tourism
KZN, Tourism KwaZulu-Natal and Trade and Investment KZN.
Inspired by the theme, ‘Recharge and Refocus’, this year’s conference
discussions are intended to re-energise the sector amidst the ongoing economic
uncertainties. “This year, HICA will have a strong focus on the ‘how to’ aspects
of operating a hotel business in a more sustainable manner,” says
Mmatšatši Marobe, CEO of TBCSA.
The programme features sessions specifically designed to share ideas on
managing businesses in distress and improving their operational efficiencies.
It includes topics ranging from restructuring hotel debt, re-engineering hotel
operations and understanding changing consumer behaviour and travel patterns.
“We invite all interested organisations to register their attendance and
take advantage of the early-bird rates on offer,” she says.
