Delegates will enjoy several networking activities held at some of the Emirate\u2019s luxury hotels and will experience Ras Al Khaimah\u2019s abundance of cultural and outdoor adventure experiences first-hand.<\/p>\n<p>Ras Al Khaimah was recently named the \u201cGulf Tourism Capital\u201d by the tourism Ministers and senior officials of the Gulf Cooperation Council. It also recently received an \u2018A\u2019 rating by the globally recognised Fitch Ratings, for the tenth consecutive year, achieved through prudent management and a diversified economy. The Emirate is considered the Arabian Gulf\u2019s most diverse destination and will be hosting many of the region\u2019s high-profile trade and business events, and the GIOHIS is one of numerous events coming to the Emirate in 2020.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Raki Philips, CEO of the Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority<\/strong> said: \u201cGIOHIS has become the leading investment event in the region built around hospitality real estate investors and those groups who work with them \u2013 hotel brands, consultants and advisors, the online travel agents, companies active in the sharing economy, lenders, designers and law firms.\u00a0 We are pleased to welcome all these groups to an Emirate truly dedicated to serving them, globally recognised by Fitch Rating for its stable outlook, driven by a high GDP per capita and robust fiscal outlook\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Simon Allison, CEO of hotel owners\u2019 network HOFTEL<\/strong> which runs GIOHIS notes: \u201cWe are delighted to be holding the Summit in the excellent and proven facilities in Ras Al Khaimah and will bring together senior executives from hotel owners, operators and other service providers for two days of serious debate and discussions about the topics of most relevance to the hospitality sector.\u00a0\u00a0 The rise of the Ras Al Khaimah tourist industry in recent years is a remarkable phenomenon and we are delighted that RAK TDA will offer our delegates a range of options for experiencing it\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In a major year for inbound tourism into the United Arab Emirates, with Expo 2020 taking place in Dubai, GIOHIS will scale new heights.\u00a0 Covering the entire Indian Ocean region, stretching from East Africa through the Indian Ocean Islands and the Gulf, to South East Asia and Australia, the summit follows the routes traced by the trading dhows in the days of the Arabian-inspired trading networks around the region.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
