Delegates, sponsors and exhibitors will get the chance to join the debate on everything from the acute shortage of affordable homes to tackling homelessness, welfare reform, regulation and the latest innovations in the sector. This is one of the biggest housing events in England and was a sell-out in 2017. Sponsoring or exhibiting showcases your brand to hundreds of decision-makers from housing associations, local authorities and third sector organisations across the South West. It s a great way of starting conversations with potential clients as well as showing your support for the sector and your understanding of the big issues that are affecting it.
