International Hospitality Industry Investment Conference 2025 - Americas | Questex | 1 June 2025 | Marriott Marquis, NYC, 1535 Broadway, New York, NY 10036, USA

We welcomed 2,100 attendees, including 400 equity investors - 60% of whom attended for the first time. It was a market-leading conference, buzzing with meetings, deal-making, capital, and opportunities in every corner of New York. Against a backdrop of challenging macro-economic conditions, evolving consumer demand, a repricing of risk in real estate markets, higher capital costs and inflationary pressures, the key to driving performance lies in proactive strategies that set the stage for success.

Hear from industry luminaries sharing cutting-edge insights and strategies, make meaningful connections with leaders from across the hospitality ecosystem, and discover why NYU IHIIC is more than an event—it's a pivotal nexus for deal-making, thought leadeship, and industry netwroking.

We know hospitality investment. And the hospitality investment community know us.
