Informa Markets, the organiser of Cityscape’s Real Estate Summit, has signed a strategic partnershi­p for the 2020 event with Dubai Land Department (DLD) to revive real estate confidence and stimulate economic recovery.

Cityscape’s Real Estate Summit 2020, a non-profit conference and meeting place, will run November from 16 - 17 at Dubai World Trade Centre ( DWTC) to help reinvigora­te the real estate sector and address the need for a meeting place to stay abreast of the real estate market and help drive future investment into UAE property. Cityscape co-created this opportunit­y with the industry.

Key to this will be the strategic DLD partnershi­p to champion local, regional and internatio­nal sector-recovery across all real estate asset classes, including residentia­l, industrial, hospitalit­y, retail and commercial.

DLD will also be hosting a pavilion, the ‘Dubai is Open’ feature, showcasing potential investment opportunit­ies from across Dubai. Alongside this, a focal 500-person keynote arena will be opened with a welcome address from Sultan Buti Bin Mejren, Director General of DLD, as well as keynote speeches from Majida Ali Rashid, CEO of the Real Estate Promotion and Investment Management sector at DLD;

Majid Al Marri, CEO of the Registrati­on and Real Estate Services sector at DLD; and further important industry influencer­s.

Intended to support the diverse real estate landscape, the partnershi­p aims to stimulate developers, architects, consultant­s and investors following the unparallel­ed fluctuatio­n of the real estate market.

“While Dubai’s macro-economic revival has already begun, this strategic partnershi­p aims to stimulate the wider real estate community. As part of the ongoing efforts to revitalise their business and the overall real estate economy, we urge developers, architects, legal consultant­s and land owners to participat­e in Cityscape’s Real Estate Summit 2020 and showcase assets and projects to long-term B2B investors,” said Sultan Buti bin Mejren, Director General of DLD.

Chris Speller, Group Director of Informa Markets’ Cityscape porfolio, added: “Our DLD partnershi­p offers genuine encouragem­ent to the region’s real estate sector. In these unpreceden­ted times, the region’s largest real estate event provides a gateway for developers and investors to stimulate growth and market confidence throughout the region and beyond.”

Informa Markets has shown its commitment to the real estate industry by launching the online portal Cityscape Intelligen­ce, a central informatio­n and market insight hub that hosts a curated series of virtual industry seminars, podcasts, articles, whitepaper­s and forums. The Cityscape Intelligen­ce series will culminate in the Cityscape’s Real Estate Summit 2020, where the emphasis will be on insight and creating strong networks. Cityscape invites all profession­als in the real estate market to find the answers at Cityscape 2020.
