Housing Industry Leaders Cymru 2024

Housing Cymru Conference 2025 is heading into its third year, bringing together local authorities, housing associations, and the supply chain to discuss key objectives and discuss their vision for the future.

The conference is split into three key areas, firstly the skills agenda and how we are going to honour the commitment of building good quality low carbon homes. Also on the agenda is the continued Optimised Retrofit Programme, building new homes fit for the future and integrating new technologies into the sector.

Fully Funded Tickets

We recognise that budgets are extremely tight across the public sector, in recognition of this Housing Industry Leaders are pleased to announce that all public sector, charities and housing association employees can attend our event free of charge.  This includes all day refreshments, a 4-star buffet lunch and an invitation to our post event drinks reception.

Why Attend

The purpose of this event is to provide a platform for current policies, plans, priorities and projects to be discussed in an open forum, discussing the challenges faced and the opportunities available in a thought provoking way.  Through our panel discussions we will get to the heart of key issues and are designed to be interactive, allowing you to have your voice heard.  The event will also bring together key decision makers across Wales with organisations from the private sector who have the capabilities and long term commitment to work closely together to improve Wales’ future.  It creates a room full of like minded people where knowledge and best practice can be shared and it’s only by working together that we can deliver a strategy which offers best value for the taxpayer and accelerate the transition to net zero.

Opportunities for the Private Sector

We have a number of sponsorship options available to meet your requirements, these include options to speak on the main stage addressing the whole audience, or by engaging in one of our panel sessions.  We also have an exhibition area running throughout the day allowing companies a focal point in the room to speak to delegates and to discuss their solutions in more detail.  We also recognise the importance of micro companies and SME companies and the role they play in Wales and have suitably priced opportunities to ensure they can be part of the conversation.
