Downtown in Business (DIB) has confirmed it will once again play a leading role at the world’s premier real estate and investment event, MIPIM, taking place in Cannes from 9–13 March 2026.
Building on the success of its high-impact presence in recent years, DIB will deliver an exclusive programme of curated events, bringing together senior political leaders, major investors, developers, and key decision-makers from across the UK and beyond.
At MIPIM 2026, Downtown in Business will offer:
- Exclusive Networking Events – including leaders’ lunches, evening receptions, and business brunches with mayors, council leaders, developers, and investors.
- Strategic Partnership Opportunities – connecting delegates with a diverse mix of stakeholders in regeneration, property, and investment.
- Showcase Platforms for Regional Projects – highlighting major developments, regeneration strategies, and investment opportunities from across the UK’s key city regions.
Frank McKenna, Group chair and Chief Executive of Downtown in Business, said:
“MIPIM is the most influential gathering in the global property calendar. Our role is to ensure our partners have direct access to the people and organisations that can help make their projects happen. Whether it’s securing investment, promoting regeneration schemes, or building relationships with key decision-makers, DIB offers a unique route to achieving those goals in Cannes.”
In 2025, DIB hosted four sold-out events during MIPIM week, welcoming high-profile guests from both the public and private sectors and showcasing landmark projects including major stadium redevelopments and high street transformations.
Businesses, local authorities, developers, and investors interested in joining the DIB MIPIM 2026 programme are encouraged to register early to secure participation in the networking, sponsorship, and project-showcase opportunities.
