43rd Cyprus hotel Summit & Exhibition

On 29 June 2021, Mr. Jens Zimmer Christensen, President of HOTREC, joined the annual summit of the Cyprus Hotel Association: a key event for the Cypriot hospitality sector and a great opportunity to discuss the latest local and international trends.

This year, the summit focused on actions and factors hospitality professionals and governments should take into consideration to stay relevant and recover.

CEOs and Ministers from across Europe joined the discussion and contributed to the relevant debate.

“We hope crucial policy measures such as the EU Digital Covid Certificate will help hospitality make up for some lost ground. Enhanced coordination of travel restrictions remains essential”, stated Mr. Zimmer Christensen over the Ministerial Panel discussion.

Mr. Alexandros Vassilikos, President of our member, the Hellenic Chamber of Hotels (HCH), and Member of HOTREC’s Executive Committee, also joined the discussion and commented that “getting EU hospitality out of the crisis will take time, pragmatism & boldness. Stepping out of our comfort zone and innovating will pave the way to rebuilding & to a new normal.”

We look forward to other opportunities to collaborate with the Cyprus Hotel Association and we thank them for the invitation.

The full agenda of the summit is available here.
