SIOR Europe Workshop: Young Voices in Real Estate

As the real estate industry continues to experience a technological, environmental and societal transformation, the need to attract and develop new talent has never been greater. The next generation of professionals will preside over the industry’s continued transformation and will shape our cities, homes, workplaces and businesses.

The latest webinar hosted by SIOR Europe’s Diversity & Inclusion (D&I) Committee will talk to a panel of young professionals and explore what attracted them to real estate, their future hopes and aspirations  and what influences them in terms of their choices of employers, clients and specialisms.

Do not miss this unique opportunity for some ‘reverse mentoring’ and to hear the views of real estate’s future leaders.
