Regenerative Hospitality Summit

Ulster University is co-hosting the first Regenerative Hospitality Summit, which will take place from 5 to 8 May 2024 in Transylvania, Romania

The Summit will put the spotlight on how regenerative practices within the industry can continue to enhance Northern Ireland's reputation as a leading food and drink destination.

An international gathering of leading chefs, food and drink producers, tourism managers and academics, the Summit will focus on how regenerative impact can support cross sector collaboration, boost resilience and enhance business performance.

Expert contributors from different locations around the world, including Chief Executive of Food NI Michele Shirlow, will lead conversations about the need for hospitality to promote behavioural change, with respect to the climate crisis and cross-cultural understanding. 

The Summit will include a dedicated session focused on food, drink and hospitality in Northern Ireland - its prospects for the future and how it might give the region a competitive advantage on the basis of its contribution to communities and the natural environment.

Organisers - Ulster University, The Oxford Cultural Collective and Casa Ratiu - are urging hospitality and tourism professionals from across Northern Ireland to attend, to share their unique experiences and perspectives, and build alliances with delegates from elsewhere in the world
