MIPIM 2026 | How to build a new town

Join regeneration, housing, leisure, and commercial experts as we craft a community from scratch. We’ll explore what works and what doesn’t when it comes to town and city centres – while also delving into the role property plays in bringing people together. Expect to talk about the high street, stadia, transport, health, housing, and more. With the UK government set to kickstart development on three new towns in the next five years, this discussion is one you won’t want to miss.
