Dear EuroCHRIE Colleagues and Members of ICHRIE,
In my role as current president of EuroCHRIE, it is with great pleasure that I share an important milestone in the evolution of our federation. With overwhelming support from our members, the board’s proposal to rename EuroCHRIE to EMEA CHRIE has been approved. This decision reflects our commitment to inclusivity and better represents the diverse community we serve across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
Dear ICHRIE Members,
Opening Keynote
The 30th Annual Graduate Education & Graduate Student Research Conference in Hospitality & Tourism was held at the University of Houston 2-4 January 2025. A record attendance of 422 witnessed numerous refereed paper presentations and posters.
The CHRIE FutureFund™ has for several years provided the Best Paper Winners with a $1,000 award, including complimentary registration to the 2025 ICHRIE Annual Global Conference, as well as a complimentary ICHRIE membership.

We are excited to announce LEVEL UP, an ICHRIE and Russell Partnership Technology Revenue Management Competition, an amazing opportunity for students to showcase their skills in a realistic hotel management simulation. Powered by Russell Partnership Technology’s industry-leading Revenue Management Simulation, this competition allows students from member institutions to step into the shoes of a Revenue Manager in a virtual 500-room hotel.
The Revenue Management Competition offers a unique platform for students to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting. As a participant, students will make critical decisions that impact the hotel’s financial performance, ranging from setting the right room rates to choosing the most effective Online Travel Agent (OTA) channels to allocating the marketing budget wisely. The end goals are to maximize profit, achieve the highest occupancy, optimize the Average Daily Rate (ADR), and build the best Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR).
This competition is open to all students of ICHRIE member schools. Not only will students gain invaluable experience, but there are also amazing prizes for the top performers!
It’s December!! 2024 has almost come to an end, as will all ICHRIE Memberships on 31 December. Memberships can be renewed at any time, but to get the most from the benefits it’s always a good idea to renew by the end of the year.
Please don’t let your membership run out as we ring in the New Year!
As the year comes to a close, it's the perfect moment to recognise and celebrate the incredible contributions of your colleagues. Starting December 1, 2024, nominations for the prestigious 2025 International CHRIE Awards will officially open. Let’s honour those who make a difference—perhaps even yourself!
Any current International CHRIE member, with the following exceptions:
ICHRIE Members,
Thank you to everyone who participated and sent in incredibly thoughtful LMS name ideas! We loved all of them! We carefully reviewed the submissions and wanted to ensure that the name can be holistic and would allow the ICHRIE LMS to grow and include all aspects of hospitality and tourism, not just sustainability and event technology.
The 2024 CentralCHRIE Conference, held online on November 8th, brought together a dynamic community of scholars, educators, industry leaders, and students to explore the theme, “Innovating Hospitality and Tourism: Embracing Technology and Sustainability.” With 64 participants representing 24 institutions, this year’s conference provided an engaging platform for collaborations and innovations. Attendees participated in 30 research presentations and one keynote address.
Congratulations to everyone on the successful conclusion of the EuroCHRIE 2024 Conference, held from November 4–7 in Doha, Qatar, with the theme “Hospitality and Tourism in a New Era: Building Bridges and Overcoming Challenges.” Hosted by Al Rayyan International University College (ARIU). The conference provided an inspiring and impactful platform, featuring concurrent sessions, interactive workshops, insightful keynote presentations, and, last but not least, enriching cultural exchanges.
The conference brought together over 150 participants from more than 35 countries, spanning Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the USA, and Asia. The program addressed vital topics in hospitality and tourism, including sustainability, digital transformation, cultural integration, and leadership. From workshops for young scholars and PhD students to the EuroCHRIE board meeting, participants engaged in learning experiences that set a dynamic tone for the event.
The Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research (JHTR) is thrilled to announce the release of the special issue: "Above and Beyond: Advancing the Power of Experiences in Hospitality and Tourism." This special issue presents a fine collection of research dedicated to advancing the theoretical understanding and managerial knowledge around the design and management of hospitality and tourism experiences.
