Canadian Real Estate Forums Virtual Conference 2020 | Informa Markets in Asia | 2 December 2020 | Toronto, Virtual Conference

A new format for our flagship event with the same top-quality experience you have come to expect from The Real Estate Forum as a face-to-face event over the past 29 years – this year in a dynamic virtual environment. We have created an exceptional experience designed for you and the unique market conditions of 2020.

Our team has defined the optimal participant experience – one filled with quality networking opportunities, interactive education, and delegate interaction designed for these unique market conditions. This will be combined with thought leadership and insights from over 90 well-known experts and practitioners from across Canada will be joined by senior executives from the U.S. and other major countries. They will include Presidents, CEOs and Managing Partners of many of the largest and most successful Canadian and global real estate organizations.

Our pivot to a virtual environment enables you to participate in The Real Estate Forum, while eliminating any health risks associated with physically attending an in-person event.

Sustainable, safe and loaded with even more value, the virtual Real Estate Forum provides deeper access to compelling topics, market intelligence on demand that fits your schedule, and multiple dynamic opportunities for connecting in a networking-rich environment between owners, developers, investors, lenders, lawyers, brokers and other intermediaries – prior to the Forum, throughout the two days, and following the event.
