ABOUT THE EVENT
The city as a whole has undergone its biggest acid test in recent memory but as the uncertainty came flooding into the real estate market, there was an air of certainty, in the fact its leaders knew Hong Kong would be resilient enough to withstand the waves. So as we near the end of the year, what are the certainties we think we can find now, looking into 2022? Taking on board the Colliers Q3 Quarterly Update, our esteemed panel made of influential leaders of the city’s biggest occupiers, employers and real estate investors, we look to seek the opportunities for Hong Kong’s landlords, occupiers and investors as we start to focus on 2022.

The ticket includes a light breakfast provided by Colliers.
