The winners of the MIPIM Awards will all have one thing in common: a holistic commitment to sustainability.

Nobel Prize winner Philippe Aghion to open MIPIM 2026

Aghion’s keynote will explore critical implications for the sector: how innovation and technology can drive sustainable and resilient urban development, the role of public and private capital in accelerating green and digital transitions, and how public policy can boost productivity, strengthen competitiveness and support balanced regional growth.

Philippe Aghion, one of today’s most influential economists, continues to guide the next generation of leaders as a Professor at the Collège de France and INSEAD, and as a Visiting Professor at the London School of Economics.

Together with Peter Howitt, he developed a groundbreaking theory showing that economies grow when new innovations replace outdated ones, a process known as creative destruction.

In October 2025, Aghion and Howitt were awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics for this transformative work.

MIPIM 2026 programme introduces new content initiatives that reflect real estate’s transformation, focusing on AI disruption, data centres, the road to net zero, and helping industry leaders turn technological change into strategic advantage.

Attend his opening keynote on Tuesday, 10 March, in the Grand Auditorium
