How do Urban Living markets match up within residential, commercial and other property asset classes? How have these asset classes grown in the last three years and where will they be in another three years time? Which Urban Living asset classes are growing fastest?

30 mins to meet, engage and do business in the exhibitor area

We debate whether the model is here to stay and how it will evolve to stay competitive.

How are build to rent, student housing and senior living asset classes performing, what's the outlook for the future?

With the growth of the working on the move culture, numerous co-working, private members' clubs and hospitality options, does where we work matter any more?
