SUMMIT, NETWORK GET TOGETHER Realty is the most important gathering of real estate professionals of the year in Belgium and Luxembourg.

Picture it as a city trip during a spring holiday. Your destination: a vibrant place where you feel the pulse of real estate and meet up with decision makers.

Take your time to stroll along the streets of this virtual city and discover new trends and ideas at the corner store. Check out the latest projects on main street and meet your future business partners while having a coffee. Be adventurous and take a series of winding alleys to discover the hidden neighbourhoods, the specialised areas fo-

cusing on Smart Cities , retail or healthcare. You never know which hidden gem awaits you around the next corner. Realty is an unmissable event for anyone active in real estate. Your visit will bring you up to speed on all important sector wide developments. Moreover, you will be among the first to hear everything about the latest exciting projects. Let’s not forget all the people you will meet during your networking journey! Once you return back home after a rewarding trip you can start unpacking your bags full of leads and business opportunities!

That is the promise we make at Realty. Enjoy your trip!

A GUIDE TO THE FUTURE What is the number one item to take with you while travelling?

A guidebook. What better way for our event to fulfill its role of showing the path to the future by having the Realty professionals write this book together?

Fascinating tales about the public meeting the private sector and elaborate chapters about international investors gaining interest in Belgian bricks are just the beginning. Our society is facing many challenges in the coming years and real estate should play a major role in finding intelligent answers to help society overcome them. What we build today should be part of the solution and form a catalyst to reinvigorate our local economy. At Realty we can learn from best practices abroad and gain valuable know-how from internationally renowned speakers.

Let Realty be your guide to imagining a different future and see how it will affect your business or organisation in the years to come.

YOU’RE NOT ALONE Most of our participants’ prime ambition is to sell their services, projects or ideas and Realty is the perfect place to achieve these goals.

However, chances are high that you are not the first one facing a specific challenge which is why connecting with peers is so rewarding.

Realty is the place where they all gather. An excellent opportunity to gain insights from people with new and different perspectives as well as showcase a project to convince local authorities of the benefits created by your approach.

TIME FOR A BIG CHANGE 2016 is the year of change for Realty. After 7 successful editions, we found it was time for a total makeover. The time has come to take Realty to the next level.

This is why we have enlarged the exhibition floor and reorganised the walkways to increase networking opportunities. Look closely at the new floorplan and you will notice that we have designed it like a city, a smart city.

Apart from networking we also want to offer our guests a set of amenities so that they can run their business in a professional yet comfortable setting.

The change is also perceivable in a fresh branding with a different look and feel. These images are a reflection of our ambitions and of the promise we make to the world. Realty is about bringing people together in order to transform the real estate community into a key driver for empowering our economies, creating added value at all levels and becoming part of the solution, not the problem.

Take the time to imagine how spatial development can affect our lives and our working environments. What impact can real estate have on mobility? We need more and more affordable housing. Our society’s requirements have changed: flexible buildings for office workers, 24/7 accessible omnichannel retail solutions, strong healthcare environments and educational institutions and sufficient leisure space.
