International real estate experts will gather in Amsterdam on June 18–19, 2026, for the “Real Estate in a Changing World” Global Conference, hosted by The Counselors of Real Estate and its European Chapter.
The two-day event will bring together investors, developers, asset managers, and economists to discuss the structural shifts shaping global property markets, from cross-border capital flows to sustainability-driven investment strategies.
“Whether you are navigating cross-border capital flows, exploring sustainability-driven investment strategies, or evaluating the next wave of real estate opportunities, this event addresses crucial issues in an industry experiencing profound change,” said Eduard Forejt, Chair of the European Chapter of The Counselors of Real Estate (CRE).
The conference, taking place at the Jakarta Hotel Amsterdam, will feature around 30 international speakers from leading organizations including CBRE, AEW Europe, BNP Paribas Germany, Savills, GRESB as well as ACROSS’s Reinhard Winiwarter.
Participants from Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific are expected to attend.
According to Herman Kok, Conference Chair and Associate Partner at DISCvision, the program combines “strategic perspectives on the forces reshaping global property markets” with “clear, actionable insights rooted in real-world analysis.”
Focus on Global Trends and Local Innovation
The agenda includes discussions on global economic developments, investment strategies, and emerging real estate sectors across Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific. In addition, participants will gain access to behind-the-scenes tours of innovative urban developments in Amsterdam.
With its combination of historic heritage and modern urban development, Amsterdam provides a fitting backdrop for the event. The city is widely regarded as a model for sustainable urban transformation and innovation in real estate.
