The NoVACANCY Asia Hotel & Accommodation Industry Expo is one of the region’s premier events, bringing together hotel groups, investors, operators, designers, and solution providers from across the Asia-Pacific region. This year’s edition will focus on the transformative growth of the hospitality sector as it accelerates into a new era of innovation, investment, and sustainable guest experience.

Antonio will join a 40-minute panel discussion on “Designing for Sustainability and the Rise of Responsible Tourism,” exploring how hotels and resorts can embed sustainability and social value into every stage of the design process. The session will highlight strategies for delivering environmentally conscious, community-minded destinations that meet evolving traveller expectations while supporting local economies.

The two-day event expects over 2,500 attendees, 200 exhibitors, and 100 industry leaders, and will offer an extensive programme of talks, exhibitions, and networking opportunities across Asia’s fast-growing hospitality market.
