We were pleased to have industry leaders, finance experts and policymakers in Brussels for the Annual CPEA Summit to discuss the future of sustainable real estate. 

The event opened with a keynote highlighting the urgent challenge of housing affordability in Europe, followed by engaging discussions on whether current approaches are addressing the root of the issue.

Throughout the day, experts shared insights on advancing a more sustainable built environment, including innovative financing solutions to scale building renovation, the growing importance of data-driven decision-making, and the tangible value sustainable buildings deliver to businesses and society.

A clear takeaway emerged: strengthening capacity across all stakeholders is critical to accelerating the transition toward a more sustainable and competitive European real estate sector.

We thank all participants for the insightful exchanges and look forward to continuing the conversation and sharing further highlights soon.
