AHIF and AviaDev Africa Returns To Nairobi in June For 2023 Edition

A Mega Week for Tourism Investment in Nairobi

The Africa Hospitality Investment Forum (AHIF), the premier tourism and hospitality investment conference in Africa, will return to Nairobi on 12-14 June 2023. Overlapping it, AviaDev Africa, the leading aviation route development conference for Africa will take place on 14-16 June. Both events will be hosted at the Radisson Blu Hotel Nairobi Upper Hill, making this a mega week for all those interested in hospitality, tourism and aviation investment & development on the continent.

Bringing AHIF and AviaDev together into the same week will enable the exploration of synergies between the aviation and hospitality industries and the government, considering inward investment opportunities, tourism development initiatives, and financing travel and hospitality-related projects. This combination will also facilitate crossover discussions between leading airlines and hoteliers planning new routes and new and new properties.

Jon Howell, Founder and CEO, AviaDev, said. “The Republic of Kenya has a thriving aviation ecosystem and has displayed resilience and adaptability during the turbulence of recent times. Kenya has a history of welcoming airlines from across the region and the globe. As one of the signatory countries of the recent SAATM (Single African Air Transport Market) Pilot Implementation Project, Kenya has illustrated its commitment to develop air connectivity; and is, therefore, a natural location in which to host AviaDev Africa.”
