This years’ Arabian Hotel Investment Conference (AHIC) held at Madinat Jumeriah saw the acclaimed brand, communications and design agency Insignia Worldwide awarded for their contribution and support in launching the Hotel Asset Managers Association’s Middle East & Africa chapter.
On hand to accept the award was the agency’s founder and CEO Gaurav Sinha. He stated:
“We are very proud to be associated with HAMA as it introduces a much-needed forum for deeper dialogue and collaboration between hospitality asset owners to improve standards of governance, policies and operational best practices.”
The visionary mastermind behind Insignia Worldwide – the region’s most reputable authority on brand experience creation for hospitality, travel and destination brands – Gaurav Sinha is an internationally recognised leader in his field renowned for his innovative thinking, inspiring leadership and sharp business acumen. He is also a passionate philanthropist, and has utilised his industry experience and influence to build Harmony House, a day-shelter that provides destitute children in India with free education, clothing, food, medical care and most importantly, hope.
Attracting other influential business leaders from around the globe, AHIC 2016, the Middle East’s most important annual hotel investment event, was made possible this year by the gracious support of event patron His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Airports, President of Dubai Dept for Civil Aviation and Chairman and CEO of Emirates. Designed to drive growth and strength for the region’s tourism and hospitality sector, the event offered unparalleled networking opportunities and a platform from which the region’s most senior hotel investors, developers, operators and advisors could secure and nurture investments with leaders from local and international markets.
Insignia Worldwide worked closely with the AHIC organisation in the lead up to the event, taking to the helm in the conceptualisation and development of the inspiring ‘Eye on the Future’ event branding. With their remarkable portfolio and unrivalled expertise in destination marketing, luxury travel and hospitality, the brand enrichment and engagement agency was the natural choice of creative partner.
