EDITOR'S COMMENT
Event and conference season is back in full swing this week as IHM's annual Urban Living Festival returns in London with an extensive agenda, a diverse speaker lineup, and, for the first time ever, its own dedicated short-term rental strand.
Taking place across two days, ULF is the region's only investment and leadership conference for urban innovators at the cutting edge of contemporary hospitality and real estate. Day One consists of tours of four exciting properties, including student accommodation, a boutique hotel, office spaces and an event space, followed by a drinks reception and networking. Meanwhile, Day Two is the main conference itself with panels, debates, presentations and more being held across multiple stages at Mary Ward House in Bloomsbury.
Our STR strand features four panels on the morning of Day Two, covering regulations, technology, mergers and acquisitions [M&A] and investment, and booking behaviour. Our expert speakers represent a host of important companies, from Smart City Policy Group to Sykes Holiday Cottages, Key Data, Bob W, Blueground, RemoteLock and more.
