On 14 March, leaders from across the North East of England will travel down to Cannes in France to showcase the region at one of the world’s largest real estate conferences.
26 organisations and more than 50 delegates have come together with the united message that the North East is an exciting, innovative and sustainable place to do business with bold ambitions for the future.
MIPIM is a world-leading real estate exhibition bringing together cities, investors and developers from across the globe to share capital investment opportunities and to explore the latest challenges to the sector.
Organisations including Monstarlab, Ryder Architecture, Avison Young and NCG are joining Invest Newcastle, part of NewcastleGateshead Initiative (NGI), to position the region as smart, sustainable and inclusive with a growing creative and screen industry.
Invest Newcastle has launched its programme of events which highlight key opportunities in the region, including in the health and life science space with Newcastle University’s Campus for Ageing and Vitality, the renaissance along the banks of the River Tyne in Gateshead and devolution.
