RICS FOCUS 2026

On behalf of RICS in Germany, we look forward to welcoming RICS Members and all other interested professionals to the 2026 edition of our annual RICS Focus event.

The event will be relevant and valuable for all built environment professionals who wish to stay fully up to date with the trends and forces shaping our industry.

The final session focuses on best practice: how development, construction and finance are adapting to this new reality.
