Senior figures from local authorities and housing associations are set to join decision makers from institutional investors and developers to examine how collaborative finance, ownership and investment models can help tackle the housing crisis.
The Housing & Regeneration Finance summit, which will take place in October, is being organised by Room151, Inside Housing and Social Housing publications, reflecting the broad base of delegates expected at the summit.

Luke Cross, editor of Social Housing magazine said: ‘We’re delighted to be partnering with Room 151 on an event that is daring to go where no others have gone before.
‘The country’s housing and affordability crisis is bigger than any one sector – and collaboration and strategic partnerships have to be part of the solution.
‘This is the first event that is all about bringing together the finance leaders from the key placemakers into one room – housing associations, local authorities and investors. These are the organisations that can make the difference to local communities and economies.
‘We’re in a brave new world which requires bold decisions from leaders across housing finance. That’s exactly what this summit is all about.’

Chief executives speaking at the event will include Ruth Cooke from Clarion, Chris Naylor from Barking & Dagenham Council, Bruce Moore from Housing & Care 21, and Alison Griffin from Southend-on-Sea Borough Council.
Among the chief finance officers presenting will be Clive Heaphy of Birmingham City Council, Sean Pearce of West Midlands Combined Authority, Waqar Ahmend of L&Q and Peter Denton from Hyde Housing.

Peter Findlay, publisher of Room151, said: “It is clear from the research we’ve done with our advisory board that finance professionals across the housing sector are actively exploring new funding and business models, with a range of different partners.
“Bringing local authorities together with housing associations, institutional investors and forward-thinking developers is about providing a platform to help foster new partnerships and to examine emerging models.”

Case studies and discussions will cover key issues holding up development, major drivers and business models adopted by local housing companies and top level policy updates. Institutional investors will outline what they look for in housing and regeneration schemes while a dedicated treasury management stream for councils and housing associations will run throughout the day.

Early bird registration to the Housing & Regeneration Finance Summit is now open.
