Lancashire unveils plans for global property expo

Lancashire is to send it largest ever delegation to the MIPIM International global property and investment conference in Cannes, France.

The Lancashire Enterprise Partnership has announced details of its showcase, which will have a potential audience of 25,000 investors, developers, property agents and policy makers between March 12 and 15.

As in previous years, the Lancashire delegation will be part of Greater Manchester’s MIPIM Partnership. However, this year the Lancashire consortium has also booked an exclusive venue adjacent to the main MIPIM site where they will host a series of invitation-only events, meetings and networking opportunities.

This includes a VIP dinner which will feature a Lancashire-inspired menu prepared by Hipping Hall head chef and Masterchef the Professionals finalist Oli Martin. Further events will focus on construction and the Northern Powerhouse, a joint event with Cheshire & Warrington LEP to focus on maritime and waterfront economies, and concluding with a Lancashire Ambassadors’ brunch event.
