The ongoing growth in IHG’s Turkey market was marked by a ‘Tourism and Hospitality Trends Turkey’ event on Tuesday 18th October at the InterContinental Istanbul, with over 50 investors and consultants in attendance.

The event was sponsored by voco hotels – one of IHG's newest and most successful upscale brands and its global expansion has happened at a faster pace than any other IHG brand. Both voco hotels and IHG’s newest brand, Vignette Collection – a luxury collection brand, are proving to be the most suitable for conversions and redevelopments.
