As one of the largest gatherings of real estate professionals worldwide, MIPIM offered us an invaluable opportunity to connect with industry leaders, share insights, and contribute to meaningful discussions on the future of real estate.

She stated, “One important aspect of this was the focus on the inclusion of women, who consistently raise and exceed the standard. The quality of the female-led panels and discussions was very insightful and well rounded as they shared their knowledge on various topics including DEI.”
Throughout the event, RPG had the honour of contributing to a discussions on ‘Doing Business with Purpose‘. Sanmi Adegoke, RPGs CEO, was a key speaker and shared his insights during this segment, emphasising the importance of aligning business goals with social impact.
Sanmi was delighted with his experience and with thrilled that he had the chance to share his knowledge and insights. “I was honored to represent RPG at MIPIM this year and to share insights during the ‘Doing Business with Purpose’ panel. It’s inspiring to see the real estate industry embracing a more holistic approach to business and I am certain that this will have a positive impact on the industry as a whole.”
At MIPIM 2024, diversity, equity, and inclusion were at the forefront of discussions, reflecting a growing recognition of the need for greater representation and opportunity within the real estate industry. Companies like ours, understand the imperative of fostering diverse and inclusive workplaces, not just as a matter of social responsibility, but as a key driver of innovation and success. We believe that diversity is not only about demographics but also about diverse perspectives, experiences, and voices contributing to more creative and effective solutions.
Moreover, MIPIM emphasised the importance of positive social impact, underscoring the role of businesses in creating value not only for shareholders but also for communities and society at large. As a company committed to ethical practices, we embrace our responsibility to make a positive difference, whether through revitalising communities or supporting local initiatives.
