This year’s theme explores the dynamic intersection of politics, policy, and property, offering a panoramic view of the forces transforming the sector and the opportunities that lie ahead. With 17 sessions across two lively stages, the programme covers every facet of the market.

Set against the striking backdrop of Wembley’s legendary pitch, the Main Stage will feature high-level discussions on the factors shaping the student accommodation landscape- from government policy and university partnerships to investment strategy, regulation, and the future of living models. Sector leaders, investors, and policymakers will share insights, engage in lively debate, and offer a comprehensive view of where the market is headed next.

Running alongside the main sessions, the Exhibition Stage brings the operational and experiential side of the sector to life. Sessions will explore what today’s students really want, how providers are adapting to evolving fire safety standards, and the growing role of technology and wellbeing in shaping the student experience. Sustainability remains a central focus, with discussions on bridging the gap between ambition and delivery, while a closing fireside chat on AI in operations will reveal how smart technology is transforming everything from maintenance to energy efficiency.

From morning registration to the evening drinks reception and Student Accommodation Awards, delegates can expect a full day of connection and collaboration- where conversations begin, partnerships form, and deals get done.

Whether you’re looking to futureproof your portfolio, navigate regulatory change, or understand the evolving needs of students, the Property Week Student Accommodation Conference remains the essential annual meeting point for anyone invested in the future of student living.
