Last week’s GRI UK & Europe Reunion 2025 saw more than 230 of the most senior real estate investors, fund managers, asset owners, lenders, and developers gather in London for a series of dynamic roundtable discussions and networking opportunities at our flagship UK conference. ?? The opening Investor’s Talkshow, moderated by Alis Pay (Clifford Chance) and featuring insights from Alexander Knapp (Hines), James Halstead (BlackRock), Martin Towns (M&G Investments), and Patrick Scanlon (CoStar Group), highlighted how investors are adapting strategies amid geopolitical uncertainty and economic shifts. Early signs of recovery in UK and European real estate are being observed, with stabilising prices, returning core capital, and growing interest in sectors like logistics, residential, and data centres, revealing a cautiously optimistic outlook as capital begins to return to the market. ?? Subsequent panel discussions addressed investment and capital strategies, sector insights, market dynamics, and sustainability and innovation in real estate, with sessions moderated by Adrian Karczewicz (Skanska), Alexander Riches (Crosswind Capital Fund Management Ltd), Cristina Balekjian (CoStar Group), Irina Stamate-Rocha (Patron Capital), Janey Douglas (JLL), Lars Meisinger (Periskop Partners (Previously DLE)), Mark Stansfield (CoStar Group), Nikodem Szumilo (UCL), Omar el Glaoui (Citi), Pradeep Pattem (Park Street A/S), Pranav Goel (Lodha UK), Rajan Somchand (JLL), Rossitsa Koevska (Goldman Sachs Asset Management), Sara Willard (Workable City Development), Simon Scott (JLL), and Tim Vallance (JLL). GRI Club would like to thank everyone who participated, including CoStar, JLL, and Deepki for their invaluable support, our Pan-European Club Partner CMS, and Club Partners Clifford Chance, Climate X, and Dentons, for your contributions to the event's success. ??
