by Property Forum | Report

Every year, Property Forum and RICS gather leading decision makers of European property markets at Prague Property Forum to discuss the future of our industry. CEOs, influential investors, bankers, developers, fast-growing proptech start-up founders, architects and valuers will come together on June 4, 2019, at the Cubex Centre in Prague to analyse the potential of the Czech property market from a global perspective. The conference, this year organized for the third time, has attracted highly respected speakers from the Czech as well as European property markets, some of them being present in Prague for the first time.


“The presentations and discussions of Prague Property Forum 2019 will focus on technology and innovation as they are rapidly changing the real estate industry. Digitalisation has affected the entire property development cycle starting with the early design, project management, leasing, sale process and long-term asset management. But it’s not only about newly-built schemes, existing properties can also adopt many of these innovations. I’m delighted that representatives of companies that have prepared and have been using such digital solutions had accepted our invitation to share their experience with us,” said Csanád Csürös, CEO of Property Forum.
 

 

The full-day agenda of Property Forum Prague will cover a wide range of topics. The morning section will feature keynote speeches from the European leadership of RICS, well-known economist Tomáš Sedláček and global proptech guru James Dearsley. Following a panel discussion featuring key property investors from the CEE region, the second and third sections of the conference will cover individual market segments. Inspired by James Dearsley’s speech, panellists will discuss how new technologies affect their chosen field.
 
The second section of the day will focus on user experience. A diverse group of experts will talk about smart buildings, sustainable development and workplace solutions. The third and final section of the day will deal with current trends on the hotel and retail markets and also the effects of digitalisation on the valuation business. At the end of the conference, a number of innovative companies from the Czech Republic will have the chance to introduce themselves in the PropTech pitch section.
 
Prague Property Forum is going to take place on June 4, 2019, from 9:00 to 16:30 at the Cubex Centre in Prague. Organisers expect over 30 speakers and more than 200 participants in total. The event takes place for the third time in Prague.
