A Showcase of Technology
The Independent Hotel Show (IHS) is the only industry event dedicated entirely to the needs of luxury and boutique hoteliers. Comprised of a curated exhibition and featuring 300 + suppliers, IHS brings together thousands of hoteliers to view new technologies, share ideas and network.
One of the highlights of Airwave's calendar, the London Olympia event provides a platform for the showcasing of current and new technology. This year's event was no exception, enabling Airwave to demonstrate the following innovations:

Best known for East Village, the former London 2012 Athletes’ Village in Stratford, Get Living has revolutionised the private rental sector, offering a simpler, more positive rental experience.
