    ULI will be holding several events at this year’s MIPIM, which takes place in Cannes from 14-18 March 2023.

    Here is a preview of our schedule:

    Tuesday, 14 March

    14:00 - 15:00 Road to Zero Stage - Opening keynote session & panel: Accelerating progress to a net zero carbon future

    Keynote: Lisette van Doorn, CEO, ULI Europe

    Real estate needs to achieve net zero operational carbon by 2030 and net zero embodied carbon by 2050. What are the net zero legislative and technological trends and innovations regionally and globally? In this session front-runners will share their experiences in developing effective decarbonization strategies to build long-term value for different stakeholders.

    Venue: Palais des Festival

    16:15 - 17:15 Conference session – Launch of Emerging Trends in Real Estate ®: Global Outlook 2023

    In this session, ULI and PwC present the results of the 2023 Emerging Trends in Real Estate Global® report. With real estate players in ongoing price discovery mode following the continuing rise in interest rates in response to central banks trying to bring inflation down, the panel of real estate experts will discuss the current challenges and opportunities for real estate across the different regions and sectors. How does the industry cope with the limited availability of finance and is a recession still looming or has the risk largely passed? In addition, the panel will explore how to accelerate progress towards a zero-carbon built environment and the potential role carbon price can play in this respect.
