Tanja Millner

Production Director

Tanja is a goal-driven self-starter. Her imaginative leadership style is all about team spirit and the ability to maximize the value for money and efficiency of all the projects she is involved in. With over 20 years of experience to her name in a dynamic global environment, turning opportunities into events comes as second nature – thanks to her outstanding talent for organisation and passion for detail.

After graduating from tourism college Austria, she joined Hilton Hotels in the UK where she worked for several years before moving to Bangkok where she joined an event management company focusing on corporate events in Asia. Back in Europe, she re-joined Hilton to open Hilton Vienna after a major refurbishment as Austrias’ largest conference hotel before moving to Hilton Hotels Munich to oversee their sales department.

Following five years in the People’s Republic of China where she set up her own event planning company, she settled in Austria to work on consulting projects within the hospitality industry. At the same time she was responsible for growing IHIDC – International Hotel Investment & Design Conference into one of the leading annual hotel investment conferences for the DACH region
