London Stand at MIPIM announces a program of speakers

The London Stand at MIPIM has announced a full program of speeches, debates, and talks in the run-up to the world’s largest international real estate event.

The revamped London Stand, supported by the Mayor of London, is always one of the key features of MIPIM, and this year it will discuss the key issues facing the capital as it continues its recovery from the pandemic.

The program, whose theme is ‘Leading with Innovation and Action’, will cover a range of issues from the decarbonization agenda to attracting new inward investment to the capital as well as the future of housing, offices, logistics, and the city’s transportation needs. 

This year, the stand is being organized by MIPIM from its usual spot at C14 on La Croisette. Here, London will promote its service expertise and its property and placemaking developments to the international investment community.

Launching the London Stand will be Lord Gerry Grimstone, Minister of State for Investment, Department for International Trade, in a keynote address. He will provide an overview of the areas and sectors driving investment into the UK and London, including insight into the impact of the pandemic, Brexit, and climate change. Other key political speakers across the three-day program include Jules Pipe (Deputy Mayor of London for Planning, Regeneration, and Skills, Greater London Authority), Catherine McGuiness (Chair of the Policy and Resources Committee, City of London), Councillor Darren Rodwell (Leader, Barking and Dagenham Council) and Philip Graham (Executive Director, Good Growth, Greater London Authority).
