Over 400 people across investment, policy and industry attended for a series of presentations and debates to hear how cities are responding to long-term environmental, social and economic change. Savills hosted a panel debate under the Summit’s overarching theme of ‘Resilient Cities’. Kelcie Elizabeth Sellers, from our World Research Team, showed how the most resilient cities attract the most investment in real estate, also looking ahead to the next decade and the challenges and opportunities facing global cities. David Williams, Executive Director at Savills, comments: “The Built World Summit brings together leaders from the entire spectrum of the build environment to shape the future of cities and therefore provided a fantastic platform for Savills to both support these conversations and demonstrate our expertise in understanding the central role real estate plays in future proofing resilient cities. As the challenges facing cities increasingly transcend borders, collective action has never been more important, and we are therefore delighted that Savills supports the Built World Declaration.” Learn more about Resilient Cities in Impacts ➡️ http://savi.li/6049v2RJ5
