18 November 2025 8.30am – 10.15am + Add to calendar CBRE _ Henrietta House

Join us on Tuesday 18 November 2025 at CBRE’s offices for an interactive event exploring what investors really want to invest in right now.

The session will open with a research presentation from Steven Devaney (CBRE), who will set the scene by examining:

  • Where capital is currently flowing

  • How this has shifted in recent years

  • Infrastructure considerations and international investment trends

  • The big question: “If you had capital to invest today – where would you go?”

We’ll then hear short pitches from four sector specialists, each making the case for why their market is the most investable:

  • Offices – recovery, resilient income vs scale, and outlook

  • Data Centres & Emerging Sectors – growth, tech demand, and infrastructure

  • Living – student accommodation, BTR, single-family housing, assisted living, healthcare

  • Retail – shopping centres and high street retail

The event will close with an audience vote on which sector is likely to attract the most investment over the next 12–18 months.

  • Moderator, Steven Devaney, Senior Director, CBRE, UK Research
