IHG LIFT
The IHG LIFT program name signifies Leadership, Inclusivity, Facilitation and Transformation to represent continued evolution across the hotel industry.
Available to owners who qualify in the U.S. and Canada, IHG LIFT is an owner growth program focused on creating more hotel development opportunities for historically under-represented groups within the hospitality industry, and further diversifying IHG’s hotel owner community. The company’s program will help unlock common barriers to hotel ownership among these groups and empower diverse owner-entrepreneurs for success. The program includes support, access to capital and help along the hotel lifecycle.
IHG Hotels & Resorts believes anyone who aspires to own and develop hotels should have the opportunity. IHG LIFT is a continuation of the company’s ongoing and firm commitments to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI).

A program such as IHG LIFT is important to our hotel industry. These efforts help grow our community of owners which should be as diverse as the guests we serve every day. IHG’s commitment and focus to make a difference certainly resonates with me as an owner.
