On the 25th and 26th of June, the Spain Real Estate Summit comes to Madrid, taking place at La Finca the UZalacaín space, to debate the attractiveness of Spain as an investment destination, and where the main opportunities may be for the future.
The Summit, which is organised in collaboration with CBRE and JLL, will provide an overview of the economic and political outlook. There will be sessions to debate trends in the various investment sectors, taking a transverse view of the many challenging aspects of “live”, “work” and “play”!
An intense agenda for the conference first day!
The first day is marked by an economic view of Juan María Nin Génova, lawyer-economist from the University of Deusto and Master in Laws and Political Sciences from the London School of Economics, who will be responsible to explain how international factors may affect the Spanish growth.
Following up to where the markets are in their cycle, the Spanish CEO’s of CBRE and JLL will share the stage to discuss how the real estate sector is expected to evolve over the next 12 months.
Equally important, the financing cycle and the attitude of lenders will also be under debate in a dedicated financing session. For the effect, representants from Apollo, Carlyle, and Santander, will address the relation between debt and equity while providing insights on what type of assets can be financed today and on what basis.
This Iberian Property event is set to be an essential platform for the discussion of the current and future dynamics of the real estate market in Spain. As such, Artificial Intelligence is a topic that could not be left out of the programme, therefore still on the first day, Nicolás Franco, Director Bootcamp AI at IE and Director of Software Development at Mr. Houston, Alfonso Cossío, Applications Country Leader, Oracle Iberia, and Alex Rayón,Co-Founder & CEO,brainandcode.tech, have the mission to answer a tricky question: How is AI going to help business and companies?
Finally, a more relaxed environment takes up and participants are invited to network and enjoy a Gala dinner with Spanish great wines, a moment which includes the Iberian Property Investment Awards ceremony, this year sponsored by SANJOSE Constructora. The Open bar & Cuban cigars wrap-up the first day!

With everyone well rested, it is time to run the engines back again. The transitioning of assets is the first topic of the second day. Is transitioning an investment or a cost? Experts from Schroders, H.I.G. Real Estate Funds, and Azora will cover the benefits and skillsets required.
