Description
Crisis often creates new opportunities. Office buildings, shopping malls, large retailers, and restaurants are increasingly being made obsolete as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to wreak havoc in our society. The ascendence of e-commerce will make it even harder for some of those businesses to survive.
The question then becomes - What should we do with all of this vacant space?
The following topics will be explored:
Repurposing vacant commercial space to boost the volume and quality of the PRS stock in Portugal.
Feasibility and business case of converting commercial and light industrial spaces into PRS housing projects in Portugal.
Keynote Speakers:
- Tiago Eiro - CEO of EastBanc Portugal
- Pedro Clarke - Principal Architect of A+ARCHITECTURE
- Joao de Lemos Portugal - Partner of CCSL Advogados
This is the recording of the Portugal event in March 2021 hosted by Silvia Grattieri and Williams Johnson Mota of B-Hive Living and Portugal Ambassadors for Co-Liv.
