Where is capital flowing?
The second day begins with six interactive breakout sessions, allowing delegates to explore the sectors currently attracting the greatest attention from investors.

Following a networking break, Francisco Horta e Costa, Managing Director Portugal at CBRE, and Pedro Figueiras, Head of Lisbon at Savills, will present an overview of Portugal's commercial real estate market, examining where the strongest opportunities are emerging across offices, retail and logistics, current market fundamentals, expected returns and financing conditions.

The discussion will explore which sectors have become investors' favourites, which have fallen out of favour, and where the next cycle of value creation may emerge.
The Summit concludes with "Capital Allocation Across Geographies", where Francisco Fezas Vital, Managing Director Portugal at Blackstone, joins Jonathan Willén, Founder & CEO of Europi Property Group, to discuss how international investors are evaluating Portugal, pricing opportunities and identifying long-term value creation across the country's traditional real estate sectors.
