Manchester: The city the world is betting on
About this Event
Manchester is one of the UK's great success stories.
Backed by ambitious regeneration, a commitment to inclusive and sustainable growth, and a devolved model increasingly looked to as a blueprint for other cities, Manchester continues to attract investment and attention from across the globe.
The city is firmly leading the regional story, attracting one of the largest shares of cross-border investment outside of London in the last five years. In 2026 alone, 86% of real estate capital flowing into Manchester has come from American investors.
With one of the key architects of devolution now leading the country, No. 10 North open for business and billions of pounds driving infrastructure and innovation forward, the city is showing what can be achieved when it is empowered to shape its own global future.
Join Avison Young, Tangerine and Invest Manchester to explore the opportunities, ambitions and challenges shaping the city's next chapter, bringing together leaders from across real estate, investment and local government to consider what comes next for the city the world is betting on.
