Last year we were with them in Hamburg and this year, it’s the charming city of Madrid. A few hundred hoteliers from the member hotels of WORLDHOTELS attended and it was like a huge reunion seeing many familiar faces and catching up with old friends.

Michael Ball started the conference off followed by a host of speakers

The photocards we printed left them a souvenir which hopefully reminds them of the fun time they had especially when most of them are just catching each other after a whole year.

There were many serious topics discussed but the speakers were witty and engaging and made the conference more lively.

It was great to meet up with Karthik Siva & Yvonne from Singapore. Karthik is the founder of the Global Brand Forum and even after hearing this talk on branding for a few times already, it has never failed to inspire. One of the key points mentioned was “A brand is a set of memories”.. I hope the photography and photocards we’ve provided helps to remind them of the wonderful memories everyone had in Madrid.

Someone also showed me a photocard of last year’s conference in Hamburg. They formed the text “WORLDHOTELS” on the table with Coffee Beans and it turned out to be one of my favourite shots.
