Why Attend The UK Life Sciences Real Estate Annual Conference

Following our sold out 2022 event, we're excited to be hosting our second full-day UK Life Sciences Annual Conference Science on 2 March.

 

Throughout 2021 and 2022 this asset class has seen extraordinary investment. This is set to increase in 2023 and the years ahead. But with economic uncertainty, rising interest rates and inflation impacting the market, how will the sector fare as budgets tighten? To be successful requires strategic vision and deep knowledge coupled with the expertise to construct and provide the infrastructure in which life sciences companies can locate and flourish, without breaking the bank in one of the most capital intensive real estate sectors.


Join us as we bring together leaders in this sector to uncover what is driving investors to sit up and take note, and how to capitalise on growth by creating and operating financially sustainable buildings. We’ll cover:

  • The temperature of the market: Current funding landscape and the impact by wider macro-economics
  • Construction and development pipeline: Supply chain uncertainty and bringing stability to a project
  • Evolving occupier demands and how to attract great life sciences talent
  • Site selection, strategic design and distinctive identity
  • Innovative spaces: From incubators to biomanufacturing facilities
  • Clusters and collaboration: Creating infrastructure to support the UK's life science ecosystem
     

 

Who Attends: The most influential investors, owners, developers, lenders, agents, occupiers, planners, architects, designers, consultants and advisors currently in, or looking to expand into, this booming asset class.

 

Why You Should Attend: Bisnow events bring together the UK's most influential commercial real estate investors, owners, developers, lenders, occupiers, consultants and advisors for dynamic and unforgettable content and dedicated networking sessions. With the largest audience of CRE professionals in the world, no one knows how to help your business more than us.
