Overview
The Global Land and Property Conference brings together leaders from across real estate, finance, urban development, and policy to examine the forces reshaping land and property in a time of unprecedented change. From climate disruption, geopolitical instability, and inflation to AI, urbanisation, and resource scarcity, today’s professionals face a convergence of challenges—and opportunities—that demand new approaches.
This year’s programme explores global market outlooks, the financing of net-zero transitions, and innovations in land use planning, alongside emerging frameworks for valuing social impact and natural capital. Expert panels and case studies showcase practical solutions, from climate-adaptive affordable housing to circular construction and water resilience strategies.
Delegates will gain insights from world-class economists, investors, urban planners, and policy experts on navigating polycrisis risks while building long-term resilience. With perspectives spanning Europe, the Americas, and beyond, the conference is a platform for knowledge-sharing, collaboration, and leadership—helping professionals unlock sustainable value across the land and property lifecycle.
