Info: What do the many changes to planning and local government mean for Reading and the County of Berkshire? Is it a game changer for the six unitary authorities, and are we about to witness a structural shift towards a spatial and mayoral discussion for the region?

Info: How is One Station Hill setting new standards in the M25 office market for occupiers – is it the right product at the right time? Which ‘clusters’ located in Reading could occupy this building and is Reading set to challenge the established London market and increasingly overactive Oxford offer?

Info: Will ‘legacy’ Berkshire shopping centres be replaced by the construction of high-rise residential blocks, and could a planning solution provide the key for housing provision in Berkshire? And how can town centres continue to expand without the provision of ‘last mile’ technology and industrial facilities for urban communities?

Info: As global markets vacillate, Berkshire real estate has always managed to adapt and survive. The growth of AI and the need for data centers represent the next opportunity for growth. With the talk of AI Enterprise Zones in Slough, airport expansion in Heathrow, are we about to enter a new era of growth and opportunity?

Info: Walk and Talk around the building, which is one of the most advanced building located in the M25 office market. Great opportunity to see at first hand with Lincoln Properties and Native Land how they approached the development for offices and BTR.
