September 7, 2021 – Parris Jordan, Chairman of the Caribbean Hotel Investment Conference & Operations Summit (CHICOS) enthusiastically announces that the 10th Anniversary edition of CHICOS, scheduled for November 10-12, 2021, will be hosted at the Grand Hyatt in the highly-praised Baha Mar resort complex in Nassau, Bahamas.
“It’s a thrill for us to celebrate this monumental event, our 10th anniversary celebration of the conference, back where it all started – in the Bahamas,” says Jordan. “We have been so fortunate over the years to experience our Conference throughout the most diverse and attractive region of the world, and to now host our hospitality developers and lodging companies at the new Baha Mar, back in the Bahamas, where I’ve had the pleasure of living for four years – is meaningful to me personally and to the loyal CHICOS attendees and advisory board members.”
Planning partner for CHICOS 2021 is the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism & Aviation which will showcase the island nation as a viable tourism development, advancing strong potential investment interest from targeted companies, and increasing awareness of various tourism investment opportunities.
Says Bahamas Minister of Tourism & Aviation the Honourable Dionisio D’Aguilar, “We are pleased to welcome such a prestigious event and celebrate the 10th year edition in the Bahamas. As someone who attended the inaugural CHICOS in our country, it is an honor for us to show the developers and operators in attendance how our island has further matured and evolved since that time.”
