UK: Excitement is building for the inaugural London ShortTermRentalz Summit in partnership with Skift on Wednesday 18 October, in the second part of the aforementioned content and media partnership between International Hospitality Media [the publisher of STRz] and Skift this year.
Building on the key takeaways from the Skift Short-Term Rental Summit in New York City earlier this month, the first ShortTermRentalz Summit will bring together the leading minds of the short-term rental industry to share their visions for the future and strategies for success. It will also be a golden opportunity to network with a high-calibre investor community as we connect you to the capital and the capital to you.
All eyes will be on Skyline London, the Summit venue on 18 October, as every area of the short-term rental industry is represented – a who’s who of owners, investors, property managers and tourism boards.
The prospective agenda for the London Summit has now been announced, covering a broad and diverse range of topics ranging from M&A and investment prospects to the evolving landscape of tech and innovation, the future of payments solutions, the great convergence of travel, hospitality and real estate, and much more. The topics will be addressed across a number of session formats, including panel sessions, debates, fireside chats, keynotes, case studies and a CEO Question Time.
Confirmed speakers so far include Awaze CEO Henrik Kjellberg, VTrips founder and CEO, Steve Milo, and Ben Harper, CEO of Watergate Bay Hotel, Beach Retreats and Another Place.
Confirmed sponsors so far include Awaze, Touch Stay and VTrips.
