Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States have enormous potential for hotel investors, developers, operators and consultants. It aims to bring together industry stakeholders to meet new investment partners and allowing you to explore the region through the Russia & CIS Hotel Investment Conference 2008 (RHIC). By joining us at this year’s event you will be placing your company at the forefront of this renewed market, full of old gems and new ventures awaiting development and investment.

As the new hosts of the event, Bench Events, co-organisers of International Hotel Investment Forum (IHIF) and the Arabian Hotel Investment Conference and Questex, co-organisers of the IHIF and HotelWorld, would like to thank our conference founder Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels who previously co-hosted the event with Horwath HTL. We are delighted that, as platinum sponsors, both will be very involved in the conference going forward, combining their strengths and market knowledge in assisting us with the 2008 programme.
