GM Forum 2024, taking place on 19 September 2024, will focus on the theme “The Evolving World of Luxury” and bring together industry leaders to discuss the future of luxury travel in the Maldives.
Now in its eighth year, the annual GM Forum kicks off with a deep dive into the psychology of the new luxury traveler. Speakers will analyze evolving demographics and psychographics, shedding light on the sustainability-conscious traveler, the health-conscious traveler and the tech-savvy guest. The rise of digital luxury will also be a hot topic, with experts exploring the impact of digital marketing, influencer partnerships and social media in attracting and engaging affluent travel enthusiasts.
As luxury transcends traditional boundaries, the discussion will go “beyond the villa” and explore new trends such as private islands, underwater experiences and eco-lodges. The forum will also address sustainable luxury, calling on GMs to embrace eco-friendly practices that resonate with environmentally conscious guests. The future of guest experience will be envisioned by innovative service personalization, curated activities and the latest technology.
The focus will be on the art of customising guest itineraries to create unforgettable journeys. Panelists will share insights on how to curate authentic local experiences that weave Maldivian culture into luxury spaces. Adventurous luxury travellers’ appetite for off-resort experiences will be satiated with discussions on partnerships with local artisans and cultural immersion.
The forum is the largest gathering of hospitality professionals in the Maldives and will feature a diverse panel of hoteliers, travel agents, marketing experts and sustainability consultants, providing a rich mix of perspectives. The interactive format will engage the audience through question and answer sessions, polls and breakout discussions, fostering an environment of active participation. Case studies highlighting the innovations of other hospitality groups in the luxury travel sector will provide guidance for the industry.
Ali Naafiz, editor of Hotelier Maldives, added: “Printlab’s continued support as our printing partner plays a vital role in ensuring that our event materials are produced to the highest standards. Their collaboration helps us maintain the professionalism of the forum.”
