Dubai: The Dubai Real Estate Institute is to beam its first virtual conference, on ‘Real estate post-COVID-19 – Challenges and Solutions’, later this month in tandem with entities from Saudi Arabia.

The two-day conference is in line with the keenness of the Dubai and UAE governments to raise the level of cooperation with the kingdom’s public and private real estate sector entities.

“We considered the necessity of organising this conference in a timely manner to exchange experiences and insights regarding the challenges posed by COVID-19 on the real estate sector,” said Hend Obaid Al Marri, CEO of DREI.

“Thanks to the participation of a group of experts, we will be able to find a set of solutions that contribute to the return real estate activity to its normalcy.”

The conference will cover seven main topics across the two days. The “economic topic” will address issues related to the government’s support of the local economy and help it overcome the crisis, while also addressing the financial incentives, challenges, and economic impacts facing the real estate sector in light of the current crisis.
