Conferences and events

• Engaging the Future

  The role of real estate in the economic equation is changing.

  The priority of industry players is now to manage risk as new revenue streams open up, helped by new drivers including:

  • Evolving new technology and human behaviour, which is transforming the nature of real estate as an investment, and as a product or service we use as consumers.
  • People centricity as a key factor for growing a successful business.
  • Government regulation pushing sustainability up the real estate agenda as energy prices rise and the impact of climate change becomes real.
  • The need for investors and owners to improve asset performance and manage the broader range of risks emerging.

  
  The real estate industry has a whole new cycle to work with over the next 30 years, fostering a lasting, positive impact in each and every built environment.
  As MIPIM 2019 celebrates its 30th edition, the main theme for our Conference Programme is Engaging the Future, a unique opportunity to envision the next 30 years under the lens of ‘durability’: an enabler for economic growth, sustainable performance and community cohesion.

  We look at how to choose the best strategies for:

  • Long-term benefit
  • Ensuring quality of life
  • Optimising the use of existing resources

  
  For this special edition, MIPIM more than ever focuses on global and societal topics impacting the real estate industry. The Conference Programme offers food for thought, strategic insights and solution-oriented tools, with leaders from around the world, and influential doers and makers from across the real estate industry.
  Join us at MIPIM 2019 to ‘engage’ the future!

  "The world of real-estate is rapidly changing. The advent of online syndication coupled with new technologies will have a large impact on the current financial ecosystem that will likely leave some established players behind. In the next five years we will see a larger shift than we have seen in the last twenty years. Adapt or die..."
