The Japan Real Estate Summit · Autumn 2026 · Tokyo

Thank you for joining us in Tokyo.

Thank you to everyone who came to Tokyo International Forum on October 17 and 18, and to everyone who watched the livestream from home. Two days of questions, conversations and new faces, and we enjoyed every one of them.

Brett’s main-room talk will be on this page when the recording is published.
