Want to know what’s really happening in student accommodation?
Join us for a Walsh Talks Session for sharp insight, real conversation and practical takeaways from those delivering the next generation of student living. The discussion will be followed by relaxed networking and conversation.
Overview
The PBSA sector has always driven improvement and continues to embrace innovation. Passivhaus, modern methods of construction and elevated design standards are now becoming the baseline. They are no longer the benchmark.
This session explores the future of student accommodation through the lens of innovation and impact. It draws on real-world case studies to show how thoughtful design and delivery can benefit people, places and profit.
The panel will examine the challenges facing developers and operators today. These include financial viability, design complexity and wider external pressures.
Join us for an engaging session that blends insight with inspiration. Expect practical examples, fresh thinking and clear strategies for creating lasting value in student living.
