The programme for Thursday 25 May will start with a round table discussion which will debate the persistence of those factors which explain the recent boom in institutional investment in the real estate sector in Spain.

A further Market review will analyse the reality and challenges in the residential market in Spain. The penultimate session of the day will be a dialogue on the theme of globalisation and real estate investment, with special emphasis on the flow of international investment into Spain.
