Why Exhibit at IHIF EMEA 2027
IHIF is where hospitality capital gets allocated, the few days when the people who fund and build hotels are all in one room.
- The region’s senior investment audience. Investors, owners, operators, developers and lenders attend, so the conversations that move deals happen here.
- A relationship floor, not a trade hall. IHIF runs on meetings and introductions, so a well-designed presence gives your team a base to host and be found.
- Three days that shape the pipeline. Deals, mandates and partnerships discussed at IHIF set the development calendar for the year.
- A room full of senior competition. Your presence sits among the biggest names in hospitality investment, so design and finish signal your standing.
- One accountable partner in Berlin. As exhibition stand builders in Berlin, XDS handles the design, build and on-site setup of your stand or branded space within the InterContinental Berlin.

Our Process
Concept & Goals
We start with your brand, your audience and what you need IHIF to produce, investor meetings, introductions or new mandates, and shape the concept around that goal.
3D Design & Approval
Detailed 3D renderings let you fine-tune every detail before production, and we confirm any venue technical requirements with the organiser and the InterContinental Berlin from the approved design.
Production & Installation
Your stand or branded space is built in our own facilities and installed by our own crew within the venue's set-up window, handed over ready before the forum opens.
Event Support & Storage
We stay on site through all three forum days, then dismantle. Modular builds can be stored and redeployed for your next event.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an IHIF stand or branded presence cost?
Custom stands and branded builds typically start in the mid five-figure range (EUR), depending on size, complexity and services. We provide transparent, itemized pricing from the first proposal, so you can see exactly what each element costs, with no surprises before or after the event.
How early should we book for IHIF?
Space and prime positions go early. We recommend starting six to nine months out so design, approvals and production all sit inside comfortable windows.
Can you handle the venue technical requirements at the InterContinental Berlin?
Yes. We confirm and meet the organiser and hotel technical requirements, and handle delivery and on-site setup within the forum’s event spaces.
What support do exhibitors get from XDS?
End to end support: concept and 3D design, production, logistics and delivery to the InterContinental Berlin, on-site setup and breakdown, and a project manager as your single point of contact throughout.
Who has a presence at IHIF?
IHIF is a hospitality investment forum. Investors, owners, operators, developers, lenders and advisors attend, and brands and companies take stands or branded spaces to reach them. If you serve the hospitality investment audience, we can design and build your presence.
