We’re thrilled to share that our ARU London students have achieved outstanding success at this year’s Passion for Hospitality Conference — an annual event that brings together professionals, academics, and students from across the hospitality industry to explore the latest trends, innovations, and challenges shaping the field. Our talented students proudly took home two key awards, showcasing their dedication, creativity, and passion for excellence in hospitality.

Her insightful research and thoughtful reflections stood out among a highly competitive field of over twenty submissions from leading universities across the UK. She also received a prize fund sponsored by the Savoy Educational Fund.
