REact 2025 Real Estate Conference



Navigating the Unknown: Turning Market Uncertainty into Real Estate Opportunity

The real estate market is facing a period of significant disruption — and possibility. From shifting capital markets to unpredictable economic forces, today’s challenges demand new thinking and bold strategies.

At the 2025 REact Conference, industry leaders, investors, and experts will share how they are responding to volatility, identifying emerging opportunities, and adapting to market shifts across asset classes. Through expert panels, real-world insights, and actionable takeaways, REact will equip attendees with the knowledge and perspective to turn today’s uncertainty into tomorrow’s advantage.
