Living Hospitality Global (LHG) has joined as a Gold Sponsor for the AIPH International Horticultural Expo Conference, taking place on 15 September 2025 in Ghent, Belgium, as part of the 77th AIPH Annual Congress.
Philosophy: Hospitality as an Art
LHG is rooted in a family philosophy where “hospitality is an art, and excellence is its highest form,” says Philipp Mosimann, Executive Director at LHG. Whether designing an intimate dinner or delivering service at a world-scale event, the company applies the same dedication to refinement, precision, and grace. Every detail is considered so that each guest feels like the most honoured guest of the evening.
Experience on the World Stage
Decades of experience have prepared LHG to meet the creative and logistical demands of mega-events. From catering the London 2012 Olympics to bespoke menus for royal celebrations, and now serving as official caterer for six pavilions at Expo 2025 Osaka Kansai, Japan, LHG has built a reputation for balancing creativity with flawless execution.
“Mega-events demand more than exceptional food—they demand vision, flexibility, and absolute precision,” says Mosimann. He also represents the Mosimann family’s distinguished legacy in fine dining, established by his father Anton Mosimann OBE, whose London-based club and catering business has long been synonymous with royal occasions, and world-class hospitality.
Excellence in Guest Experience
For Expo organisers, LHG emphasises that excellence requires empathy and foresight. “It’s about understanding the needs, desires, and emotions of every visitor, often before they are expressed,” explains Mosimann.
By paying attention to cultural nuances and creating authentic connections through food and service, LHG believes Expos can move beyond spectacle to become truly personal and memorable experiences.
Reflections Ahead of Ghent
Looking ahead to the Congress, Mosimann shared: “Expos have always been more than international showcases—they are living testaments to human creativity, collaboration, and shared ambition. Through the universal language of food and shared experiences, we can build bridges of understanding and connection that endure far beyond the duration of the event. It is an honour for us at Living Hospitality to play a role in shaping these moments.”
AIPH Welcomes the Partnership
For AIPH, the addition of LHG highlights the vital role hospitality plays in creating unforgettable Expo experiences.
“We are delighted to welcome Living Hospitality Global as a sponsor for the upcoming AIPH International Horticultural Expo Conference. Their experience of catering for mega-events, including World Expos, gives them valuable insight into providing memorable dining experiences on a large scale,” said Tim Briercliffe, Secretary General, AIPH.
The AIPH Expo Conference will gather organisers of forthcoming AIPH-approved Expos, including GREEN×EXPO 2027 Yokohama and Expo 2029 Korat, alongside city leaders, industry partners, and stakeholders.
