YHS 2021 will be a Hybrid Event; meaning we will be streaming live from EHL Lausanne and seeking opportunities to hold small-scale events across the world. Industry professionals will explore current topics affecting the hospitality industry through interactive sessions, speeches & discussions with student delegates from over 40 schools around the globe. The event will take place from the 22nd to the 25th of March 2021 discussing this year’s topic “A Macroscopic View: Rethink, Re-Sculpt, Rejuvenate”. YHS wants to focus on the shifts in the industry caused by Covid-19 and highlight the importance of adapting to this new world.

Backgrounder: In 2010, five students from the Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne founded a small committee with a great purpose: to bring together established professionals and aspiring leaders of the hospitality industry to share ideas and knowledge which would accelerate progress in the industry. Since then, YHS has established itself as the largest student-run hospitality summit in the world. Every year, YHS welcomes approximately 30 speakers, student delegates from over 40 world's leading hospitality institutions, as well as members of the media, and other external guests at the summit. Building on a different theme each year, YHS serves as a platform for insightful and engaging debates and discussions on the industry's hottest topics.
