The 9th annual Hotel Investment Conference Africa, fondly known as HICA, is currently underway in Johannesburg, South Africa. Organizers of this conference hope the conference will broaden its view of the hospitality sector across sub-Saharan Africa, with a focus on who’s behind the deals, growth markets, technology partners and trends driving profitability. It is being hosted under the auspices of the Tourism Business Council of South Africa. As the leading hotel investment conference in sub Saharan Africa, HICA assembles the region’s senior hospitality professionals, international hoteliers, investors, developers and top public sector leaders from across the region. To chat to us about this conference, we are now joined in our mobile studio by:
Derek Hannekom SA Minister of Tourism
Mmatsatsi Ramawela – CEO Tourism Business Council SA
Mark Satterfield (COO of Marriott International)
