David Anderson to Discuss Third-Party Hotel Management at ILHA INSPIRE Conferences
The International Luxury Hotel Association (ILHA) is gearing up for its annual INSPIRE conferences, which promise to be a significant gathering for leaders in the luxury hospitality sector. Taking place in Prague from November 12-13, 2025, and in Las Vegas from December 10-11, 2025, the event will host over 1,400 influential figures from the industry, including owners, investors, and developers. These gatherings aim to address pressing issues facing luxury hospitality through panel discussions and networking opportunities.
A major highlight of the Prague conference will be a panel titled "Third-Party Hotel Management Investment, Agility, and Growth." Among the esteemed speakers will be David Anderson, President of Aimbridge EMEA. In his role, Anderson leads a diverse portfolio of hotels across the UK, Ireland, Continental Europe, and the CIS, focusing on strategies that ensure long-term profitability for hotel owners.
During the panel discussion, Anderson will share insights into the evolving role of third-party management in the hospitality landscape. He emphasizes that Aimbridge does not merely act as an operator but as a partner, collaborating with owners at each critical stage—from acquisition and rebranding to formulating investment strategies and optimizing operational processes.
"We work closely with our partners and clients to drive performance, transparency, and agility across different markets. It’s about enhancing the overall financial performance while adapting to the dynamic nature of the hospitality industry," he notes.
Anderson's contributions are particularly important as the hotel sector faces various challenges, including changing consumer demands and economic fluctuations. His insights will not only highlight the benefits of third-party management but also provide practical strategies that can lead to improved agility and returns in investment within the hotel industry.
The INSPIRE conferences will feature more than 160 speakers who will lead discussions on innovation, culture, wellness, technology, development, and investment in the hospitality sector for the upcoming year. This year's theme promises rich conversations and actionable takeaways for industry participants aiming to thrive in an increasingly competitive market. Attending these conferences presents an invaluable opportunity for professionals at all levels to learn, collaborate, and shape the future of luxury hospitality.
Registration for these conferences is now open, with tiered ticket pricing available. Given the high demand, early registration is recommended. Conference details can be found on the ILHA’s event website for both Prague and Las Vegas.
