We’re pleased to announce our flagship conference Urbanity is back and this year we’re going even bigger and better.
If you're unfamiliar then you may want to do a quick recap before reading on.
Urbanity is Australia’s premier conference for the property and urban development industry, targeted at unlocking the potential of cities in the Asia-Pacific region.
We’ll unpack the big and small ideas shaping your urban legacy and give you the necessary intelligence to take on your urban legacy and make the most of your future opportunities.
Why is your "urban legacy” so important?
The World Health Organisation has predicted that over 70 per cent of the human population will be living in urban environments by 2050.

Urbanity provides an interactive forum to discover what is possible over three action-packed days and nights.
