MIPIM, the global urban festival, will welcome delegations from more than 90 countries to take part in its extended four-day programme of speeches, panels, awards and networking in Cannes. Every year MIPIM brings together the world’s property, investment and political leaders to uncover solutions to the major challenges our cities face whilst driving forward the real estate industry.
Sanna Marin, the former Prime Minister of Finland, will open the festival with a keynote speech.
The 2024 edition will take place at a time of global political and economic uncertainty, the ongoing urgency to address climate change, and crucial challenges facing key real estate sectors such as commercial and residential property. Held on 12-15 March, MIPIM will serve as a pivotal platform for international leaders, investors and developers to accelerate change towards a more diverse, sustainable, and profitable real estate.
