Countdown is on to the Lancashire Property Conference
More key speakers have been announced for the much-anticipated Lancashire Property Conference which will take place later this month.
Simon Quin of the High Streets Task Force and Emily Handslip of Urban Splash will join designer and housing developer Wayne Hemingway as keynote speakers at the event hosted by Lancashire Business View.
The conference will take place online on Tuesday, October 20, 10am-12pm staged via Zoom. It will examine the red rose county’s property sector and its challenges and opportunities in the future.
Simon will speak on the future of the county’s high streets and city living, while Emily Handslip will take a look at the offices of the future.
Simon has worked in both the UK and the USA in the private sector and on behalf of the government and will share his decades of experience to explore what lies ahead for the county. Emily will draw on her day-to-day role managing and wide-ranging commercial property portfolio to examine how workplaces are likely to evolve.
Wayne Hemingway will speak on his experiences of founding Hemingway Design in 1999, which has since gone on to win multiple awards for its design, positive impact on local regeneration and its market-leading sustainable initiatives.
He will also share his thoughts on the future of Lancashire’s property markets and explore how the county can capitalise on emerging trends.
In addition to the key speakers, there will be roundtable debates focusing on a variety of key themes. Panellists will represent local councils, developers and other property professionals.
