Dr Gerard Lyons speaks at Real Estate:UK’s Annual Conference

Economist Dr Gerard Lyons joined industry leaders at the inaugural Real Estate:UK Annual Conference, speaking and contributing to a day of discussion focused on the forces shaping the future of real estate, investment and the wider economy.

The conference brought together senior figures from across the property sector to explore some of the most pressing challenges and opportunities facing businesses today, including geopolitics, artificial intelligence, cyber resilience, investment and economic growth.

Building on a keynote session from geopolitical commentator David Rennie, Gerard examined the global and UK economic outlook, highlighting the key trends likely to influence business and investment decisions in the years ahead. His address explored slowing global growth, rising levels of debt, inflationary pressures, productivity challenges and the broader economic implications of rapid technological change.

Gerard also discussed the importance of maintaining the UK’s global competitiveness, attracting investment and embracing the opportunities presented by artificial intelligence, while recognising the challenges that accompany periods of significant economic and technological transformation.
