Most financial and economic sanctions against Iran have now been lifted (Jan 2016), following the International Atomic Energy Agency’s verification.
Iran, the second-largest nation in the Middle East, has hammered out an investment package worth $25 billion to revitalize its tourism. The future opportunities within Iran’s hotel and tourism industry are substantial, however with a limited supply of hotels operating in key cities, particularly Tehran, the lifting of sanctions is expected to set off a modern day ‘Gold Rush’ as developers and operators race to secure their position in one of the world’s largest untapped markets.
The Iran Hotel Development Conference will bring together local and international hotel stakeholders; hotel chains, investors, developers, architects and construction companies as well as hospitality institutions, government officials, finance institutes, consultants and technology providers to discuss opportunities and ways to realize the potential hotel projects in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
