Join us in Tallinn and be part of the discussion on
how to shape the Future of Real Estate in the region.

Main Topic of the Nordic Real Estate Forum 2023 is
CHANGES in Real Estate – the Moment of Truth.

The goal of the Nordic Real Estate Forum is to become the leading real estate forum in the Nordic and Baltic countries.

You have a possibility to listen to the TOP Keynote Speakers and take part of the discussion panels. Due to the challenging times, we have decided to organize a hybrid conference. This means
that the forum will also be broadcasted online for those not able to travel to Tallinn.

For 19 years we have held the largest and the oldest real estate conference in Baltics. During this time, more than 6000 participants and 590 speakers from over 15 countries have been hosted.

This year, you can expect decision-makers and business leaders from Europe, Nordics, Baltics.
