In what is a featured event on the Property Council of Australia’s Queensland event calendar, the 2023 Property Leaders Lunch lived up to expectations.
300 property professionals came together last Friday, 16 June to hear from some of the biggest names in the property industry provide their candid analysis on the current market and predictions for the future.
The panel included Michael O’Brien – Managing Director – QIC Real Estate and Property Council National President, Dale Connor – CEO – Lendlease, Carolyn Viney – CEO – Super Housing Partnerships, and Anouk Darling – CEO – Scape and President of the Student Accommodation Council. The discussion was expertly navigated by Luke Fraser – CEO – Howard Smith Wharves and Property Council Queensland President.
The conversation ranged across numerous areas including the ongoing impact of interest rate rises, housing affordability, construction cost challenges, the emergence of build-to-rent and the unsung hero of the nation’s economy – Purpose Built Student Accommodation.
Special thanks to all speakers for sharing their candid insights and to Ethos Urban for sponsoring the event.
