Homes England at MIPIM

British push for construction investment in Cannes

National housing agency Homes England will visit the MIPIM show at Cannes this month in a bid to increase investment from overseas in English construction.

Homes England will be part of a delegation from Her Majesty's Government led by the Department for International Trade and co-ordinated by the Capital Investment directorate. The event is a great opportunity for HMG to present a unified voice to the investor and regional property community and will also feature contributions from the Ministry for Housing, Communities and Local Government, the Department for Transport and the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.

HMG will have a prominent pavilion space at the event and is partnering with the British Property Federation to run an activity programme that promotes UK investment opportunities, based around the Government’s Industrial Strategy foundations of productivity: Innovation, People, Infrastructure, Business Environment and Place.

The delegation will present a series of talks at MIPIM on topics including the 'Northern Powerhouse' and construction automation.
