by Ákos Budai | Report

On 19 September 2017 the fifth edition of CEE Property Forum, organized by Property Forum in partnership with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) will gather leading real estate professionals and top executives from Central & Eastern Europe to analyse the potential of the regional real estate market from a global perspective. 70 speakers and more than 400 visitors will come together in Vienna, creating a unique networking opportunity. 


Europe and the region’s leading real estate and banking professionals, investors interested in CEE, bankers, advisors, law firms, agencies and property managers will come to Vienna to discuss the latest trends on the real estate market. 
 
Europe is going through major political and economic changes, but despite of all the uncertainty, 2016 was truly a turning point for the CEE property investment market. An increased number and more diverse group of investors started looking at individual assets and portfolios, resulting in the largest number of transactions since the beginning of the crisis. Will this upward trend continue into 2017 and 2018? Which CEE countries can present themselves as the best choice for investors? Where will new money come from? Top international investors will answer all of these questions and many more in Vienna.
 
Confirmed speakers of CEE Property Forum 2017 include Adrian Karczewicz, Head of Divestments CEE at Skanska Commercial Development Europe; Robert Martin, Principal – Head of Central Europe at Europa Capital; Frank Nickel, CEO of CA Immo; Árpád Török MRICS, CEO of TriGranit; Patrick Delcol, CEO for CEE at BNP Paribas Real Estate and Daniel Folian, Managing Director at Warimpex.
