Senior living has been tested like few other sectors of real estate by the impact of COVID-19. Staff, operators and owners dealt with a pandemic which disproportionately affected the residents of care homes and senior living facilities — and they coped admirably. And in spite of the short-term effects, the sector showed incredible operational and financial resilience: Occupancy fell, but rent collection was above 95%, according to JLL, far higher than sectors like retail, offices and even that darling of property investors, logistics. 

Looking longer-term, the demographic tailwinds behind senior living are as strong as ever, with an ageing population in need of specialist later life facilities. The sector is maturing, with developers and operators offering differentiated products across the affordability spectrum, providing plenty of opportunities to access the market and capitalise on its expected growth.

Please join us for Bisnow’s Senior Living Extravaganza, a two-panel digital event with plenty of opportunities to network with speakers and other attendees from the comfort of your home.

You will learn:

1. Where the capital will come from to fuel the growth of the senior living sector: Both debt and equity. 

2. The funding structures being put in place by investors and operators

3. How the design and development of facilities is evolving

4. The operational lessons learned from COIVID-19

5. Running operations profitably at different points of the price spectrum

In addition, we're excited to bring you three virtual networking opportunities during the digital summit:

1. You'll be able to take part in video-enabled speed networking to meet with like-minded individuals and spark warm leads

2. You can also send 1-1 chats to start a conversation or share your digital business card

3. When you're ready to take it to the next level, you can schedule a private video meeting during the summit and really start to make deals happen

Unable to attend live? You should still buy a ticket! You will be able to access recordings of all Digital Summit sessions for 30 days after the summit! You must register prior to the end of the summit to view on-demand.
