The Property Rental & Leasing Conference brings together landlords, investors, developers, asset managers, occupiers and policymakers across the commercial, industrial, retail and residential sectors to examine the forces shaping rental and leasing markets in 2026. As the industry navigates economic recalibration, evolving occupier behaviour and heightened risk awareness, the conference provides a timely platform to assess what is driving demand, where value is shifting, and how leasing strategies must adapt to remain competitive and resilient.
In 2026, leasing decisions are increasingly influenced by flexibility, sustainability, technology adoption and tenant risk management. Commercial properties are responding to shifting occupier expectations through more adaptable leasing models, space optimisation strategies and a stronger focus on tenant experience and retention while industrial and logistics properties continue to benefit from supply chain restructuring, automation, and e-commerce growth. Retail leasing is being redefined by experiential formats and omnichannel integration and residential rental markets are shaped by affordability pressures, build-to-rent momentum and changing lifestyle expectations. The conference will explore how these trends impact rental performance, lease structuring, tenant retention and asset value across sectors.
With a strong focus on what the industry must watch out for in 2026, the conference will address emerging risks, regulatory and policy developments, ESG requirements and the growing role of data and proptech in leasing decisions. Through expert-led sessions and market-driven discussions, delegates will gain practical insights to future-proof portfolios, strengthen income security and position their assets for sustainable long-term growth in an increasingly complex rental and leasing environment.
