The Urban Developer is proud to present the Queensland Residential vSummit - a virtual conference focused on the impact of Covid-19 on Queensland's residential property sector.
Through keynotes, panel discussions, interviews and case studies the vSummit brings together industry leaders and experts to uncover the virus' impact on greater Brisbane.
Program outline
1. State of the residential market: Yesterday, today and tomorrow.
In this keynote presentations, one of the country's leading researchers unpacks the current and future impact of Covid-19 on Australia's residential housing sector.
The session look at both the short-term and long-term impact that the pandemic will have on sales volumes, pricing, auction rates, rental demand, investment yields, new construction supply and more.
2. The developer crystal ball: What lies ahead for the residential sector?
In this interactive panel discussion, we step inside the mind of some of Australia's leading private developers to understand:
- How Covid-19 has changed their outlook on the future of the residential sector.
- What is their response to Covid-19?
- Do they smell opportunity through chaos?
- Or are rapidly deteriorating economic conditions a sign of major challenges ahead?
The session explores the current and future strategies these developers are employing to manage the uncertain times ahead.
3. Expert property predictions: Building beyond the pandemic.
In this interactive panel discussion, we bring together the trusted experts that are advising and investing in projects across the country.
- What is happening with project funding?
- How will sales channels be shaped by the virus?
- Will construction prices go up or down?
- How will planning authorities respond with policy?
The session will explore the major issues central to the development of projects over the coming years.
4. Sustainability, resilience and adaptation in residential buildings.
The unprecedented events surrounding Covid-19 have prompted the world to radically rethink urban life. We are living and working differently. Our supply chains have changed. Global tourism and trade have effectively stopped. And our interactions with fellow humans has ceased indefinitely.
- So what does this mean for sustainability and the role of buildings in the future?
- What is the new definition of urban resilience and adaptation?
This session explores how these unprecedented times will create new opportunities for sustainable cities of the future.
5. Interactive case studies
6. Perspectives from the top: What can Covid-19 teach us about property, business and life?
2020 has made many of us rethink our lives - who we are, what we do and why we do it.
In this session, leading developers Don O'Rorke (Consolidated Properties Group), Adelene Teh (Beulah International) and Jonathan Hallinan (BPM) share their perspectives in an open discussion.
What did the attendees day?
"Well worth the time based on the flexibility of engagement without the necessary travel and associated accommodation created a very well valued event."
