Property Week is delighted to launch the 9th annual Student Accommodation conference and the inaugural Student Accommodation Awards.

The Student Accommodation conference is UK’s largest and longest running event in student housing. It sells out each year, which we anticipate to be the case for 2016. Places are strictly limited, and to guarantee your attendance, we suggest you book yours early.

Through a series of presentations, panels and project showcases, the conference will bring together the key players in the UK student accommodation sector, with an added angle on the fast growing European market.

From universities, private developers, policy makers and independent experts, to investors and key consultants, the event will provide unique insight into what the future holds for purpose-built student accommodation in UK, but also in Europe. We will also hear from end customers – students themselves – whose voice is not often heard, but who will ultimately decide on how successful a scheme is.

The programme has been released and is available to view now. These will be updated as the agenda evolves, so watch this space for updates!

Additionally, tying on the successes of the conference, the Student Accommodation Awards have equally big ambitions: to champion the very best in student home-away-from-home life and recognise excellence in design, innovation and social spaces of exceptional student housing.  The shortlist has just been announced and is available to view online.
