Two keynote speakers have been announced for the 16th edition of AHICE Asia Pacific, which takes place at the Adelaide Oval on Wednesday 7 and Thursday 8 May 2025,

Joining a stellar line-up of speakers from across Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands and beyond, is AHICE Premier of South Australia, The Hon Peter Malinauskas MP, who will take to the stage for a Q&A interview covering the hotel and tourism landscape.

The Premier returns following his 2024 appearance at AHICE, in which he candidly shared stories about his memories in hotels.

On the hotelier front, Accor’s global Chief Development Officer, Camil Yazbeck, will fly in from Paris to speak at the conference. Yazbeck will discuss the operator’s global growth and ever-expanding pipeline of properties internationally.
