HFF Sponsoring and Speaking at 21st International Hotel Investment Forum in Berlin, Germany
HFF Real Estate Limited (HFF) announces that it is sponsoring and providing a speaker at the 21st International Hotel Investment Forum (IHIF) on March 5 through 7 at the InterContinental Berlin in Berlin, Germany.
Various members of HFF's hotel group have attended the conference for the past five years, and this year's HFF delegation comprises senior managing directors Michael Kavanau, David Church, Raj Somchand, director Brad Greenway and senior director Edward Bradford, along with senior managing director and head of HFF's hotel group Daniel C. Peek, who is speaking from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. on day two of the conference on the global hotel capital markets.
This is the first year that HFF is a sponsor of the conference, which has become a meeting of global collaboration that brings together more than 2,000 senior industry leaders from more than 80 countries. The theme for this year's event is "Reaching New Heights," which the conference anticipates will facilitate attendees recognizing new investment opportunities, improving profitability and discovering the tools needed to break into new markets. IHIF will also focus on the key regional markets of Germany, Southern Europe and the Mediterranean, Asia and the Middle East and Africa.
“We are excited to return once again to the IHIF in Berlin,” Peek said. “Year in and year out, it's a great opportunity to meet hotel owners and operators who are active around the globe. Its more meaningful to us now as HFF continues to build our business in Europe.”
“We are very pleased with our strong traction in the hospitality sector in Europe,” Kavanau added. “As previously released, HFF has been involved in the recapitalisation of more than 6,300 rooms in the past six months.”
