How it all started...

In 2010, five EHL students came together to create a medium that connected students with established industry professionals. YHS has since become the largest global student-run hospitality summit. Every year, YHS welcomes approximately 30 speakers, delegates from over 40 leading hospitality institutions, and media members.
