This conference focused on the dynamics and future prospects of the hospitality and travel industry in the <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia-Pacific<\/span> region, discussing the latest development and investment opportunities and challenges in a variety of the region&#8217;s hot markets. Nearly 75 leading industry experts were invited to speak at the 2024 conference. Ms. He Jihong, the Chief Strategy Officer of <b>H World Group Limited<\/b>(&quot;<b>H World<\/b>&quot; or &quot;<b>the Group<\/b>&quot;) attended the conference and delivered speeches on the Group&#8217;s business and the development of the travel industry.<\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\" id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder8344\">\n<p style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: center; WIDTH: 100%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnasia.com\/media2\/2363628\/H_World.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnasia.com\/media2\/2363628\/H_World.jpg?p=medium600\" title=\"\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/><span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As one of the fastest-growing hotel groups globally, H World ranks sixth in terms of the number of hotel rooms. With the resurgence of <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> economy in 2023, the Group witnessed promising signs of recovery, commencing from February of the previous year. For the full year of 2023, the RevPAR of Legacy-Huazhu (refers to H World&#8217;s business in <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>) reached 122% of the 2019 level. Addressing the trajectory of the Chinese economy and its tourism sector, Ms. He underscored a discernible trend of robust demand emanating from lower-tier cities, with a notable increase in RevPAR observed in lower-tier cities, as well as strong franchisee interest in investment in these locations. H World&#8217;s portfolio consisting of over 80% limited-service hotels, is well-suited to meet the requirements of franchisees in third and fourth-tier cities, thereby further contributing to the favorable outlook for H World&#8217;s business.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding international business development, Ms. He emphasized that <span class=\"xn-location\">Southeast Asia<\/span> emerges as a nascent market for H World, signaling a promising frontier ripe with untapped potential and strategic opportunities. While the Group&#8217;s operations span <span class=\"xn-location\">Europe<\/span>, the <span class=\"xn-location\">Middle East<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">India<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Africa<\/span>, and the <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia Pacific<\/span> region, including the Ji Hotel in <span class=\"xn-location\">Singapore<\/span> and Steigenberger in <span class=\"xn-location\">Bangkok<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Southeast Asia<\/span> stands out as a pivotal focus area, given its proximity to H World&#8217;s home market. The Group also expresses keen interest in nations such as <span class=\"xn-location\">Vietnam<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Indonesia<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Cambodia<\/span>, and <span class=\"xn-location\">the Philippines<\/span>. Moreover, with the official rebranding of Deutsche Hospitality as H World International, the Group embarks on a journey to expand its footprint in overseas markets, signaling the commencement of a new chapter in its international growth.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Ms. He stated that H World has consistently embraced technological innovation. With its in-house operational system and analytical tools, the Group has significantly enhanced its ability to engage loyal members and forge meaningful connections with customers while deciphering their preferences. Presently, the self-developed platform boasts over 200 million members, with projections indicating further growth in the coming year. H World&#8217;s strategic vision encompasses the cultivation of a robust ecosystem through development of technology and data analytics as well as increasingly targeted customer service applications.<\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\" id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder0\"> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Focusing on Lower-tier Markets and Opening a New Chapter of International Growth HONG KONG, March 15, 2024 \/PRNewswire\/ &#8212; From March 13th to 14th, the Hotel Investment Conference Asia Pacific Update 2024 (&quot;HICAP UPDATE&quot;) was successfully held in Hong Kong.
