The firm’s award-winning real estate team hosted some of the most recognisable figures in the region’s property sector to discuss issues such as the effects of Brexit on the region’s property market and whether there is a future for the Northern Powerhouse.

Clients and contacts including Lidl UK, Saint-Gobain, Bank of England, Caddick Developments and Barratt Homes debated some of the north’s most topical real estate issues.
