The Future Hospitality Summit Africa (FHS Africa) is set to return to Nairobi, Kenya’s capital from March 31 to April 1, bringing together leading figures in hospitality, tourism and investment at a time when the continent is attracting heightened global attention.
Established as one of Africa’s premier platforms for high‑level industry dialogue, FHS Africa – to be held in Nairobi – will bring together senior decision‑makers to discuss investment trends, development strategies, destination competitiveness and operational performance.
Organisers say the 2026 edition will continue to prioritise partnerships, policy alignment and commercially driven outcomes as Africa’s hospitality sector expands.
Speakers will include Uganda Tourism Board chief executive Juliana Kagwa, Serena Hotels Africa chief executive Ashish Sharma and Angama Group chief executive Rosco Wendover, who will address destination leadership and the challenges of scaling hospitality brands across diverse markets.
Investment‑focused sessions will feature insights from Ewan Cameron of Hospitality Group, Rahul Chaudhary of CG Corp Global and Kasada Capital Management’s Olivier Granet, reflecting growing investor appetite for African hotel and tourism assets.
Broader discussions on sustainability, long‑term destination planning and commercial strategy will be led by Aptamind Partners founder Aradhana Khowala and Sarova Hotels executive Mita Vohra.
Entrepreneurship and African brand expansion will also take centre stage, with CityBlue Hotels founder Jameel Verjee sharing lessons from building a regional hotel group.
CBS News travel editor Peter Greenberg will provide a global perspective on travel demand and destination perception.
