WEBINAR: Future Development Plans – Newcastle & North East

Over the coming months we’ll be hosting a series of webinars – helping to keep the industry moving and talking during a period of uncertainty, enabling people to talk and build relationships whilst helping to maintain industry confidence and demonstrating thought leadership.

This webinar will focus on the development activity in Newcastle and the wider city region, whilst also addressing some of the key issues and challenges which we as an industry face in the coming months. Speakers will be invited to share details on their current development programme and future pipelines as well as providing advice and opinion on what the industry needs to do to survive the current crisis, what is requires in the short term and how we will manage the increased demand and activity once the UK recovers.

This event will run in a similar manner to all of our physical events – with short presentations from several key speakers and opportunities for live Q&A and interaction.

Speakers for this event include:

Michelle Percy,
Director of Place

Helen Cadzow,
Director

Neil McMillan,
Managing Director

Sarah Woodmansey,
Development Manager

• Cadzow Estates – a champion for development and investment across the North East, Helen has been a major player on the built environment scene in the region for many years. Formerly Investment Director at Trust Estates, Helen is now playing a key role hooking up international investors and sovereign wealth funds to development opportunities in the UK. Helen has a specific remit to help Far East and Middle East developers connect with land development opportunities across Tyneside, County Durham, Teeside and Wearside and will give an insight into the types of investment the region may see over the next two years.

An expert in delivering ‘place based’ regeneration, Neil will give an update on the progress of this project and give a glimpse into his work alongside developer Arlington with their future ambitions.

• Ask Real Estate – as part of a £260m JV between Ask Real Estate and Patrizia which will deliver huge regeneration of Gateshead Quays, Sarah will be on hand to talk about this game changing development that is set to deliver thousands of jobs to the region while contributing significantly to refining the North East as a major destination for leisure and investment.
