Office downturn or return? The future of real estate’s largest market
Despite being the largest global real estate market, offices were one of the hardest hit asset
10:00 14:00 18:00
classes from the pandemic. With pent-up demand and expected rises in employment
growth, the pre-covid demand is forecast to return by late 2022. But should the office
return? With new hybrid working models and full capacity returns still in discussion, how
does the office reshape and reconsider to offer a safe and engaging return for so many?

The new look city centre: to redevelop or to repurpose existing commercial real estate?
Following the pandemic, some of the ways in which we have been operating are changed
forever and we are re-assessing the qualitative aspects of our surroundings. With city
12:40 16:40 20:40 centres around the world changing their functionality and purposes, the question remains
on whether converting empty retail space to residential is fit for human habitation. This
session will explore repurposing real estate case studies and our panellists will debate the
ultimate planning enigma.

Net zero carbon targets in commercial real estate – what’s informing the agenda, how is real
estate meeting those challenges and who will pay for it?
Of the world’s 2,000 largest public companies, at least one-fifth (21%) now have net zero
09:10 13:10 17:10
commitments (ECIU, 2021), but how should real estate organisations change traditional
operations, offset efficiently, and finance the pathway to net zero? This session explores what
sustainable real estate can contribute to a greener future, discusses stakeholder incentives and
how a collective footprint can bring new opportunities into the sector.

The golden market - will the industrial and logistics market continue to boom?
Rising investment, demand superseding supply and the ecommerce boom all played into the
10:00 14:00 18:00 hands of the industrial and logistics market. But will it continue to benefit from long-term or
indefinite change within the commercial real estate sector? Real estate forecasters RealFor
predict a 13.5% rental growth by 2025 but with local market conditions changing, is the boom
over for the industrial and logistics market?

survive and thrive?
With global crowd density precautions striking our high streets, have retail stores been too

13.6% (of all retail sales in 2019) to an expected 19.5% in 2021. What does the challenge mean
for retail real estate and how exactly does the sector attract a return to bag-in-hand shopping?

the sector in 2022 and beyond?

GDP growth in 2021 and Europe and Middle East & Africa in 2022, is the attraction of higherreturns tempting investment back to the hardest hit asset classes, like hotels, or is the growth
of industrial and logistics, multifamily and data centres too significant to ignore? This session

Improving performance - introducing the new RICS International Building Operations Standard
BuildingMinds, Microsoft and RICS have joined forces to introduce an “International Building
Performance & Data Standard”, consisting of the “International Building Operations Standard”
(IBOS). The new global standard will support organisations wishing to measure operational
12:30 16:30 20:30 performance of their property assets in a consistent manner – irrespective of the type of
property or its location. IBOS not only covers the key pillars of asset performance but also
addresses the significance of user experience - and in doing so reaches beyond the more
traditional technical aspects of operational performance that have become tried and tested
over many decades. Join us for first insight into how the new RICS global standard will support;
consistency, benchmarking and quality in the commercial real estate sector.

Rethinking real estate – has the pandemic brought an opportunity to bring new life to
commercial spaces?

fund managers will need to work harder to reinvent undervalued assets hit by the
pandemic. This session explores how reutilizing real estate space to stay ahead of
secular trends could contest occupier behavior changes and reinstate much needed
value to compete for investment and attracting new tenants.

Real estate is one of the oldest and most established asset classes, however even the
