Recap: ULI Belgium Academic Lunch in collaboration with EMI school
On Wednesday 20 March 2019, ULI Belgium organised its first edition of the ULI academic lunch in collaboration with EMI school.
More than 180 top real estate professionals attended the 2019 ULI Belgium Annual Conference, which took place at Library Solvay in Brussels, to explore the topic of building a great city and how to work together to unlock the potential.
Throughout history, cities have been the main centres of culture, learning and innovation. It is not surprising that the world’s most urban countries tend to be the richest and have the highest human development. Ongoing rapid urbanisation has the potential to improve the well-being of societies and yet it also presents many human development challenges.
The 2019 ULI Belgium Annual Conference provided a platform for real estate, business and public sector professionals, together with visionary experts, to focus on what makes a great city and how we can work together to unlock the potential of urbanisation.
Following a convivial networking lunch in the grounds of the Library Solvay, Xavier Dennis, ULI Belgium chair, officially opened the conference before handing over to ‘urban superhero’ Greg Clark, a ULI Europe Senior Fellow, who moderated the conference with great enthusiasm.
A short summary of the day, as well as an official InfoBurst including full audio recordings of the main conference sessions are available here.
