CEE Local Funding 2024 | GRI Club | 4 March 2024 | TBA, Prague

The European real estate market has been stuck in a “wait and see mode” for quite some time now, which has been preventing new international players from entering the CEE market. In that scenario, the dominance of domestic capital prevails, with local capital being responsible for 53% of investment volumes, most notably in the Czech Republic at 41%.

Despite the global geopolitical and economic challenges, the Czech investment market remains strong with local investors playing a more vital role than ever. In that context, our goal is to answer a few pressing questions: What are the benefits for investing in the country? Where to find the best investment opportunities? And how to stay proactive in this transaction-stillstand scenario?

GRI Club CEE members will come together for a collegial discussion on investing across the Czech real estate market. The conversation is designed to foster dealflow, promote engagement with peers, and create unique opportunities to meet new partners.

Discussions will touch on:
• Domestic Capital - What makes the CEE Market the ideal investment destination for local capital?
• Dealflow - How to stay proactive in the “wait and see” scenario and prepare for the rebound?
• Location - Where can investors find the best opportunities in the Czech Republic?
• Investments - The land of opportunities when compared to more saturated markets?
• Co-investments - How can local partnerships assist in sourcing, pricing and securing deals?
