As the UAE continues its journey towards becoming a global leader in urban development, the World Realty Congress & Awards 2024 will play a pivotal role in advancing discussions on green building practices, PropTech innovations, and sustainable frameworks. This event, scheduled from December 9th to 13th at the Palazzo Versace in Dubai, aims to deliver tangible outcomes and foster collaboration within the real estate industry. Leading experts will gather to address the challenges and opportunities that are reshaping the sector.
The congress will bring together international real estate leaders, PropTech pioneers, developers, and sustainability advocates to explore how the real estate sector can support the UAE’s Vision 2033, which prioritizes innovation, sustainability, and long-term economic growth. "The UAE’s Vision 2033 outlines a bold vision for sustainable and innovative real estate," stated Jatin Deepchandani, CEO of Plan3 Media, the event organizer. "The World Realty Congress will not only spotlight current trends but also initiate dialogues that will influence the future of real estate development in the region. Real estate is more than just an industry; it’s a catalyst for economic growth, community development, and environmental stewardship."
The event will feature a stellar lineup of speakers, including Michael Belton, CEO of MERED, Madhav Dhar, Co-founder and COO of ZāZEN Properties, Stuart Harrison, CEO of Emrill Services, Hamdan Mohamed Al Kaitob, Head of Property & Community Development at DEYAAR DEVELOPMENT PSJC, Francis Giani, Chief Community Management Officer at Dubai Holding Community Management, and Imran Farooq, CEO of Samana Group. Attendees will participate in panel discussions, masterclasses, and roundtable sessions focusing on smart city development, energy efficiency, and investment strategies. PropTech innovations will also be a key focus, providing insights into the technologies that are revolutionizing global real estate practices.
Sustainability will be a central theme throughout the congress, aligning with the UAE’s broader commitment to environmental responsibility. "Sustainability is no longer just an option; it’s an integral part of every development," added Deepchandani. "We’ll explore how developers, investors, and governments can collaborate to implement sustainable practices that support long-term growth, in line with the UAE’s future vision."
The event will conclude on December 13th with the Awards Gala, where 312 nominees will vie for honors in categories celebrating innovation, leadership, and forward-thinking real estate practices. These awards will recognize individual achievements and broader contributions to economic development and community building. Supported by nine international industry associations, the World Realty Congress is poised to be the largest gathering of its kind in the region, offering unparalleled networking, knowledge sharing, and collaborative opportunities across the real estate sector.
