Introduce Sustainability to hospitality professionals.

The hospitality market is expected to be worth $35.9bn in 2018.

An estimated 227 additional hotels are required to meet the projected demand by 2020, as Dubai’s room inventory is planned to grow from 80,000 to 160,000 rooms.
Among travellers there is a growing demand for sustainable lodging.

Sustainability is at the top of the agenda for the GCC and integral part of the Government’s holistic framework!
