About PLACE

PLACE is the new placemaking Virtual Property event brand for progressive and alternative property leaders.

From the private to the public realm, the curation of space and place is at the forefront of world-class projects. The commercialisation of the experience is attempted by many, but succeeded by few. At PLACE, we delve into the most successful examples of global placemaking.

The first PLACE Virtual Event took place on 10th September 2020. The next PLACE Virtual event is scheduled for 3rd June 2021 in London.

The Flagship SPACE UK and SPACE APAC events also have PLACE stage.

Registration is via SPACE+ membership or by single event tickets.
