UKREiiF 2026 highlights
Connecting people, places and businesses to accelerate and unlock sustainable, inclusive and transformational investment across the UK.
Collaboration and innovation beyond the boundary
We saw 900+ delegates in the JLL pavilion during the conference, with attendees hearing our experts share their insights across 28 sessions throughout the event covering a number of topics:
Regional office markets – exploring how constrained supply, evolving demand for flex space, and increasing rents will reshape the sector across the UK.
Data centres – we separating facts from fiction, highlighting the need to work with communities to reduce the perception gap ahead of inevitable data centre developments.
AI transformation – understanding how AI can streamline existing processes and showcasing the building blocks of its implementation.
Scottish investment opportunities – with new energy in the region, plus Green Freeport initiatives, we can expect positive movements on the horizon.
Living sectors evolution – capital flows and resilience across Build-to-Rent, student housing, and later living.
Coordinating the public sector – working with teams throughout the entire project and planning process to understand all stakeholder objectives (short and longer term).
Collaboration and innovation didn’t stay within the UKREiiF boundary… we welcomed over 310 clients and Alumni to our JLL Leeds office and off-site events over the three-day conference.
Needless to say, it was a busy few days and packed with valuable perspectives, driving dynamic and forward-thinking discussions.
A huge thank you to our expert panellists, partners, and everyone who visited the JLL pavilion throughout the week.

How will the regional office market respond to the lack of supply, evolving demand, including Flex & Managed space and increasing rents? Will we see a volume of refurbished stock, delivering much needed quality space to the regions? Is development viable and will it provide the returns needed to spec space or will it be a pre-let driven market?
The expert panel will explore these questions to identify the factors that will shape the future of the regional office sector.
Event will be followed by networking from 10.30am - 11.30am.
