The headline theme for the UKAA (the UK Apartment Association) Annual Build to Rent Conference and Awards 2023 has been announced. The membership organisation for Build to Rent (BTR) and Single-Family Rental (SFR) in the UK, UKAA is known of its forward-thinking events. This year’s conference will focus on the BTR: the transformative value of investing in homes and communities. 

The 2023 event will take place in the City of London on 2nd November 2023, running from 9am to 5.30 pm, with the conference followed by networking drinks and a lively awards celebration. It will build on the themes of previous Annual Conferences and pledges made in line with the UKAA Manifesto 2023, including UKAA’s focus on excellence in BTR and commitment to EDI and ESG across the sector. 

“This year’s Annual Conference puts the inherent value proposition of BTR front and centre, highlighting the social contract that BTR brings to communities with the UKAA leading the development of a BTR Code of Practice. The must-attend event will explore the real value of BTR on homes and communities across the UK, showcase best practice, provide a platform for knowledge sharing and enable future-thinking dialogue. We welcome all those who believe in building better: building BTR.”

Within the headline theme, the focus will be on four strands: quality; customer and community; investment; and policy and standards. Six keynote sessions and 16 deep dive sessions will explore these topics in full, delivering an outstanding knowledge agenda at the BTR sector’s premier annual event.
