The Speakers

An Owner-Driven Event Focused on Hotel Real Estate Investors, Developers and Franchisees

The 9th edition of SEAHIS will be at the excellent meeting space offered by the Movenpick BDMS hotel in Bangkok, with a second night reception at the Chatrium Grand next door.

We will also introduce the Bangkok edition of our Branded Residences Investors’ Summit series, with a section of SEAHIS devoted to Branded Residences issues, in conjunction with our partner Bill Barnett of C9.

What Makes SEAHIS Different?

  • As many of you already know, SEAHIS is run “by owners for owners” as well as for companies which provide services to owners i.e. the entire hotel industry universe
  • It’s based around hotel real estate investors – Owners of hotel real estate have consistently been the largest group. In 2025, 52% of attendees came from groups which own and invest in hospitality real estate, both owners and owner-operators
  • It’s very high-level – usually 35-40% of attendees are company owners and their families, CEOs and other C-suite officers
  • Despite the name, this is an event which covers the entire Asia Pacific region, with sessions on, for example, Japan, Australia and the Maldives
  • Content-led – we are still very much a conference, not an exhibition.  Generally half or more of our attendees are in the hall throughout the event and about 40% are speaking at some stage in proceedings
  • Value for money – SEAHIS is significantly lower cost than similar, older events without compromising on the content or the networking
