The Guardian announces that over 50 leading Nigerian companies and counterpart firms from the UK, Ghana, South Africa and UAE are part of the organizations that would participate in the 2nd Nigeria Real Estate Summit and Expo to be held in Lagos.
This was announced at an interactive meeting with stakeholders in Lagos.Steve Ike, Head of the summit’s organising committee asserted that all is set for the hosting of one of the most important events in the Nigerian Real Estate calendar.
According to Ike, the summit and expo with the theme: “Collaborating, innovating and growing to achieve adequate and affordable housing delivery in Nigeria” is billed to deepen on-going discussions, stimulate measurable actions and provide the most inclusive and sweeping answers to the housing issues in Nigeria.
The Real Estate Summit and Expo will convene the most prominent real estate players, industry professionals and policymakers for two workdays of expert-led discussions and tailored networking events to discover, experience, participate in discussions and also chart a new path for the Nigerian real estate industry.
Stakeholders, during the sessions, would ponder on five key issues namely land, infrastructure, housing finance, policy and strategy, and technology. The Real Estate Summit will also analyze supply and demand as the local economy and growing population drive land expansion.
According to Trends Nigeria, Ike is reported as he expressed that impacting the geopolitical, economic and societal challenges facing the real estate industry and creating new sources of growth, would require stakeholders to adapt and rethink their strategies by collaborating with fellow players and devise new forms of philosophies. The NIRESE Summit is, therefore, designed to offer insights, inspiration and solution-oriented tools to turn these philosophies into actions.
Aside from the national conference, the summit will feature an exhibition show that will provide an opportunity for property developers and other service providers in the industry to showcase existing housing stock, building materials and new construction technologies.
With an agenda structured around presentations in plenary and panel discussions, as well as a housing marketplace to support focused conversations between investors and projects, the summit will entice stakeholders from across the country, all with the express purpose of furthering investment in affordable housing.
Steve Ike said the Nigeria Real Estate Summit and Expo will offer stakeholders a platform for discussing and sharing experiences, and deliberating towards innovative interventions to support the growth of the nation’s economy through the development of a vibrant housing sector. The summit is expected to generate actionable recommendations that will transform the housing landscape and create new opportunities across the country.
