HVS MexHIC 2020 | HVS Conferences | 20 February 2020 | Hyatt Regency Mexico City, Campos Elíseos 204, Polanco, Polanco IV Secc, 11560 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

In the current environment, uncertainty prevails, as Mexico's government introduces policies and programs as part of an ambitious transformation. To date, for the hotel industry, signals seem mixed. The cancellation of the partly-completed Mexico City airport created grave concern, and the elimination of the Consejo Nacional de Promoción Turística seems to have left a gaping hole. Many investors have sounded alarms, while some continue their programs undeterred. The Tren Maya seeks needed regional development, but depends on proper execution. A strong tourism sector remains active in every way, but the landscape seems to be changing.

Within this context, HVS is pleased to announce the ninth annual Mexico Hotel & Tourism Investment Conference, or HVS MexHIC 2020, a forum for interaction between market participants focused on defining market drivers and visualizing a path for sound industry growth.
