Wembley Park plays host to Property Week seminar

Hosted in partnership with Quintain and Dentons, on 2 May, Property Week brought together experts from across the industry to offer up solutions on ‘How to Survive the Retail Apocalypse’.

Chaired by Property Week editor, Liz Hamson, and Justin Taylor, formerly of Cushman & Wakefield, the 120 attendees enjoyed two lively panel discussions and a Q&A, with speakers including Matt Slade, Retail Director at Quintain and Anna Strongman, Senior Projects Director at Argent, tackling everything from the retailer/landlord relationship to troubleshooting in the retail industry. The audience also heard from two keynote speakers: international retail executive, Andrew Jennings, and the Bill Grimsey Report collaborator and co-founder of Didobi, Matthew Hopkinson.

The event was held in Boxpark Wembley, which sits in the £3bn, 85-acre Wembley Park urban transformation that is creating a new neighbourhood for North London.
