The HMG delegation is being led by the Department for International Trade and co-ordinated by the Capital Investment directorate. The event is a great opportunity for HMG to present a unified voice to the investor and regional property community and will also feature contributions from the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government, the Department for Transport and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.
HMG will have a prominent pavilion space at the event and is partnering with the British Property Federation to run an activity programme that promotes UK investment opportunities, based around the Government’s Industrial Strategy foundations of productivity: Innovation, People, Infrastructure, Business Environment and Place.
We will be running our own programme of events over 3 days in Cannes, giving attendees the chance to hear from our leadership team on subjects like strategic housing growth, modern methods of construction, design and quality.
