WeHub founder Mauro Gasparotti remarked: “MTE aims to strengthen connections among hospitality and real estate players, create collaboration opportunities, and provide valuable insights to developers, hotel owners, and industry partners, empowering them to seize opportunities and prepare for a new cycle in the real estate and hospitality markets.” With this in mind, the conference programme includes presentations and panel discussions on various topics, including domestic and regional market updates; Vietnam Real Estate: Investment & Development, Risks & Opportunities; and the Vietnam Hospitality Landscape.

IIHM announces Global Knowledge Sharing Declaration on AI in Hospitality across 50 countries
Representative Image A Book titled ‘Harmonizing Human Touch and AI in Tourism & Hospitality’ by IIHM’s Founder Dr. Suborno Bose also launched The International Institute of Hotel Management (IIHM), under the aegis of the International Hospitality Council (IHC), has announced the Global Knowledge Sharing Declaration on AI in Hospitality, bringing together 50 countries in a collaborative effort to integrate artificial intelligence into hospitality education and industry practices. The declaration, spearheaded by Dr. Suborno Bose, the Founder of IIHM and CEO of IHC UK, establishes a framework for global cooperation among 50 hospitality colleges, creating a platform for sharing AI-driven knowledge, best practices, and innovations. As part of this initiative, hospitality colleges from 50 countries will be encouraged to introduce and intensify AI-driven teaching methods and campus operations. IIHM will provide strategic leadership to ensure successful implementation. Highlighting the urgent need to embrace AI, Dr Bose stated: "The Global Knowledge Sharing Declaration is a comprehensive framework to integrate AI into hospitality education worldwide. It prioritizes inclusivity, human-centric values, and sustainability, ensuring that technology enhances rather than replaces the essence of hospitality. AI is not artificial—it is ‘Advanced Intelligence.’” The Knowledge Sharing Declaration is one of many steps taken by IIHM to ensure that the hospitality industry remains future-ready. By integrating AI as an indispensable tool, the initiative aims to improve operational efficiency while enhancing guest experiences with a more personalized, human touch. The declaration also outlines collaborative efforts, including curriculum integration, partnerships with governments and NGOs to bridge the digital divide, and the development of AI solutions that support sustainable tourism. A book titled ‘Harmonizing Human Touch and AI in Tourism & Hospitality’, by Dr Suborno Bose, which explores the intersection of AI and hospitality, has also been launched. Each chapter presents real-world examples of how AI enhances guest satisfaction, sustainability, and operational excellence—ranging from predictive maintenance to sentiment analysis and zero-waste initiatives. “This book serves as a vital resource for students, educators, and industry professionals, demonstrating how AI can complement, rather than replace, the human essence of hospitality,” said Dr. Bose. The launch of the book highlights the growing importance of AI in the hospitality and tourism sectors. Institutions will be encouraged to integrate the book into their knowledge-sharing processes, expanding its reach and impact. The initiative calls upon industry leaders, academic institutions, and governments to support AI-driven innovation while maintaining hospitality’s core values of empathy and inclusivity. Leading hospitality figures have praised IIHM’s AI-driven approach. According to Celebrity Chef Ranveer Brar: "AI at IIHM addresses a much larger workforce challenge. The industry once feared AI would replace jobs, but we now understand that if used wisely, it enhances skills and transforms professions." Padma Shri Chef Sanjeev Kapoor added: "Technology is a tool—it doesn’t have a soul. Hospitality professionals must bring the soul while using technology as a support system."

Branded residences could drive growth in Philippine tourism and hospitality sectors
C9 Hotelworks and Delivering Asia recently held a special tourism and hospitality event in Manila wherein the possibility of branded residences boosting both tourism and hospitality was discussed. This forum was attended by over 100 industry leaders and featured speakers like Lee Lin, regional director for the Asia Pacific for Nobu Hospitality, and Tajara Leisure and Hospitality Group president and CEO Cyndy Tan Jarabata. C9 Hotelworks managing director Bill Barnett remarked: “We believe that Manila has all the potential to evolve into a global playground city. Its regional accessibility, diverse entertainment options, and rich lifestyle offerings make it a prime candidate for the growing demand in luxury residences.” The integration of branded residences into the Philippines’ tourism and hospitality landscape is already making waves, with international hospitality groups such as The Ascott Limited spearheading the development of luxury residential offerings. With luxury real estate markets thriving in key destinations across the region, the Philippines stands poised to benefit from this growth. The rise of branded residences, combined with world-class hotel and resort offerings, will further elevate the country's status as a prime location for both international travelers and investors. As tourism continues to drive growth in the country, the fusion of branded residences and hospitality sets the stage for the Philippines to become an even more compelling choice for travelers and investors, positioning it as one of the most exciting destinations in Asia for the coming decades. Changing the game in playground cities World capitals like Manila are increasingly becoming “playground cities,” following in the footsteps of other cosmopolitan hubs such as Bangkok, Miami, and Dubai. These cities have successfully combined luxury real estate with the region’s vibrant entertainment, sports, gaming, and lifestyle offerings. The Ascott, in particular, has been a pioneer in branded residences in the Philippines for over two decades and is confident that these properties will cater to an increasing demand for high-end, serviced living spaces. Saowarin Chanprakaisi, The Ascott Limited’s vice-president for business development, said: “We are fully committed to the Philippines in the long term. Our brands, including Somerset, Citadines, and now Oakwood, bring international expertise and world-class services that align perfectly with the expectations of buyers looking for top-tier branded residences. As the market matures, these residences will add a unique dimension to the country’s growing tourism and hospitality sectors.”
