We are in the midst of unprecedented changes to the way we live and work, with all sectors being affected by the current pandemic. However, for the property industry, Covid-19 could have a transformational impact.

In this BusinessDesk.com seminar in partnership with Bevan Brittan, we will look at the impacts of the pandemic on property investment. Consider who the winners and losers could be, what the changes to work and lifestyles may mean for the office and residential markets, and where the money will come from for new development.

Our panel of experts will share their thoughts and insights on what the future of the industry looks like in Yorkshire and across the Northern Powerhouse.
