On 17-19 May, the Socius team will join over 4,000 attendees in Leeds for the annual UKREiiF event, which connects people, places and businesses to accelerate the Levelling Up Agenda, whilst unlocking sustainable, inclusive and transformational investment across the UK.
MK Gateway, Socius and Patron Capital’s exciting new sustainable development in the heart of Milton Keynes, will be showcased as part of a joint exhibition with Milton Keynes Council and Invest MK, offering an insight into the exciting and rapidly evolving future of Milton Keynes.
With a model of the MK Gateway site – designed by globally-renowned architects, Rogers Stark Harbour and Partners (RSH-P) – to be displayed at the event, the stand promises to demonstrate Milton Keynes’ unique position within the premier Oxford to Cambridge Arc growth corridor and how this is set to ignite and influence investment within Milton Keynes.
As well as being available to talk to attendees on the stand, the team will host both a dinner and lunch opportunity, attend the prestigious UKREiiF Awards Ceremony, for which Director of Socius, Olaide Oboh has been shortlisted in the ‘Social Value Creator of the Year’ category, and will be speaking at a number of panel/round-table discussions, including:
