Women Leading Real Estate Is Back!

Bisnow is excited to bring you the sixth edition of our UK Women Leading Real Estate event series! Since 2018, we have been growing this programme to become one of the most significant diversity events within the UK commercial real estate industry.



The core purpose of this event is to enhance the success of women in the commercial real estate industry and promote industry diversity more generally. This event will provide education, networking and resources for professional development. We hope through this event we are able to promote the employment and advancement of gender diversity in the industry and strive to create a better awareness of viable career paths in commercial real estate.



Our 2023 event will bring together top female executives from all elements of the UK real estate community. They will give their take on the current market, share career advice on how to reach senior management and discuss innovative strategies to push diversity within commercial real estate. Find out what makes these executives tick and how they are leaving their mark on the industry.



2023 Women Leading Real Estate List: In the run up to this event each year, Bisnow produces an annual list of female real estate professionals doing brilliant things, celebrating the diverse range of talent within UK property. We are thrilled to showcase our 2023 honourees as listed above and you can read more about them
here.

 

 

What You'll Learn:

  • How to push for diversity and inclusion beyond gender diversity by exploring viable strategies and initiatives
  • How to overcome the barriers to reaching senior management
  • The trends market leaders see are shaping the commercial real estate industry
  • How to navigate the current unstable market conditions
     

 

This event promises to be a can't-miss opportunity to meet and mingle with the most impactful and influential professionals in our industry. We are very much looking forward to welcoming you for another fantastic Women Leading Real Estate event.
