ULI Europe Webinar: Life Sciences After the Pandemic – The Emergence of a Real Estate Investment Class in Europe?

Life sciences is a significant and growing occupier across Europe. Its expansion in the last few decades has been created by ecosystems that successfully combined the triple helix of universities, governments and private companies to attract industry investment.

However, in Europe, despite the predicted continued growth, the life sciences sector is not yet understood well by the real estate industry or recognised as a distinct investment sector. While governments are realising the growth opportunity and importance of this sector to cities, the property and investment community so far have a limited knowledge of its potential and involvement in the delivery and management of the sector.

During this webinar global experts in the Life Sciences sector will discuss how Europe can learn from lessons from the US addressing topics like the growth prospects for life sciences, risk/return characteristics, operational management requirements and skills, and the potential role in investment portfolios. The panel discussion will also be supplemented with questions and comments from the online audience.
