UKREiiF wins Best UK Conference/Event award 2024

The UK’s Real Estate Investment & Infrastructure Forum (UKREiiF) marks a remarkable achievement at the Conference and Events Awards 2024, winning the hotly contested Best UK Conference/Event award.

In just three short and extraordinary years, UKREiiF has become a cornerstone for the UK’s real estate, investment and infrastructure sectors. From the initial 3,500 attendees at its 2022 event, 2024 saw tremendous growth in attendees.

“We are absolutely thrilled to receive this recognition. Winning Best UK Conference/Event is a testament to the incredible hard work and dedication of our entire team. It highlights the significant impact UKREiiF has made within the industry, and we are immensely proud of this achievement.”

Louise Eyre, Director, UKREiiF

With 12,000 people anticipated to attend, this year saw a record-breaking 13,000 attendees at the event, which was held at the Royal Armouries in Leeds in May. In over three days, £150bn worth of investment opportunities were pitched.

“Being awarded Best UK Conference/Event is an incredible honour. Our event is often described as more of a festival than a conference, thanks to the vibrant atmosphere and the buzz created by our attendees and team.

“This award underscores our commitment to excellence and innovation in delivering an unparalleled experience for all participants.”

Nathan Spencer, Director, UKREiiF

This year’s event saw Caddick Group and Moda bring their Places for Life Pavilion back with new content and major development launches. Cyclists also joined UKREiiF Sportif to raise funds for the Yorkshire Children’s Charity, who support vulnerable children. The ride had three different routes – a 25km, 70km and 90km route.

As UKREiiF celebrates this prestigious award win, preparations for next year’s event are already underway, with over 2000 tickets already sold and massive sponsorship deals in place.
