Real estate players gather to create fresh connections and prepare for new cycle

Riding on the back of a positive year for hospitality in Vietnam, the local market is now poised for further advancements and exciting upgrades.

Demonstrating a long-standing commitment to industry growth, WeHub is continuing its Meet The Experts (MTE) conference, renowned as one of the largest conference series for real estate and hospitality professionals in the region.

MTE Ho Chi Minh City 2025 will take place on March 18 at Landmark 81, Autograph Collection Hotel, in Ho Chi Minh City.

The event will bring together more than 50 international speakers and over 800 senior industry leaders, including representatives from real estate developers, hotel owners, architects, design consultants, project consultants, hotel operators, hotel general managers, and industry experts.

Organisers said the conference is ideal for foreign investors seeking to connect with local developers and hotel owners, as well as to be part of market updates and informative sessions.

Mauro Gasparotti, founder of WeHub and creator of the MTE series, said, “The conference aims to strengthen connections among hospitality and real estate players, create collaboration opportunities, and provide valuable insights to developers, hotel owners, and industry partners, empowering them to seize opportunities and prepare for a new cycle in the real estate and hospitality markets.”

Gasparotti added that the industry has fully recovered, and investments are expected to flow again into both city and coastal destinations, with growing interest from foreign investors.

“In addition, 2024 marked a transitional period for Vietnam’s real estate industry. Key legislative changes have emerged as crucial factors shaping the industry’s future trajectory and building a foundation for improved market confidence. Increased interest in real estate, heightened investor sentiment, and a more stable economic environment are driving this positive momentum,” Gasparotti said.

The country’s tourism industry continues to gain momentum, supported by favourable visa policies, enhanced tourism infrastructure, and strategic marketing efforts by local authorities and businesses, he added.

The conference line-up will include presentations and panel discussions on various topics such as Vietnam and regional market updates, real estate investment and development, risks and opportunities, and the nation’s hospitality landscape.

Speakers will discuss and share their perspectives on wellness, sustainability and its practical applications, and the ultra-luxury segment, as well as the latest technologies shaping the future of hospitality and real estate, and many other prominent topics.

In 2024, Vietnam welcomed nearly 17.6 million international arrivals, a 39.5 per cent on-year increase, finally reaching pre-pandemic levels.
