Event Programme Speakers Become a Partner What to Expect

This online conference will focus on shaping the next 30 years of the property and development sector from the mouths of the prodigal talent and companies who will be at the vanguard of the evolution as we reflect on the impact of Covid-19.

The UK built environment industry is about to embark on a maelstrom of change. While there’ll always be a myriad of exciting projects being lead by the traditional developers a new wave of disruptor’s, innovators and influencer’s are coming to the fore. At this event, delegates will hear from up and coming voices and organisations who are relatively new to the sector and be given an opportunity to listen, learn and interact about collaboration opportunities. Whether it be ‘rising stars’ within a current pan-UK developer or the chance to hear from an emerging force whom they may not be aware of, this event offers everyone the chance to shape the future, peek behind the curtain of what might be coming and gain a hatful of new contacts.

Some of the developments set to be discussed include:

* Argent’s £700m Paradise project	* Yet to be announced schemes by XUSA
* Croydon Council Owned Brick by Brick’s future plans	* Packaged Living’s fresh BtR plans
* Magway’s innovative’ Hyperloop’ for the logistics sector	* Hill Group’s £53m Stevenage scheme
* MELT Property’s £250m development pipeline	* Sustrans bid to create a national cycle network
* Environment Agency’s £2.6bn investment	* 24 sites brought forward by Brick by Brick
