In light of the vote for Brexit and other recent political and economic events, there has never been a more critical time for the residential industry to come together and pull in the same direction to “keep Britain building”.
RESI, taking place on 12-14 September, will show you how to keep the industry on the road – we’ve gathered the market heavyweights from all sides of the residential sector to thrash out the answers the industry urgently needs.
On policy, we will hear from the newly-appointed housing minister Gavin Barwell on how to create the right conditions to keep Britain building.
Other high-level speakers – top representatives from local authorities and housing associations, construction and housebuilding, developers and investors – will debate the housing market in the light of the Brexit vote, including devolution of power to cities and the role of the public sector.
Key speakers for the agenda days at Celtic Manor Resort Golf Club in Gwent, Wales (13-14 September) include:
- Gavin Barwell, minister of state for housing and planning, Department for Communities and Local Government
- James Murray, deputy mayor for housing, Greater London Authority
- Tony Pidgley CBE, chairman, Berkeley Group
- Paul Stanworth, managing director, Legal & General Capital
- Deborah McLaughlin, executive director - North West, Homes and Communities Agency
- Michela Hancock, development director, Greystar
- Natalie Elphicke OBE, chief executive, The Housing & Finance Institute
- Paul Tennant OBE, group chief executive, Orbit Group
