It also names keynote speaker
The Bridging & Development Lenders Association (BDLA) has revealed preliminary details for its 2024 annual conference, scheduled for November 7 at RSA House in London.
The association, previously known as the Association of Short Term Lenders or ASTL, announced that journalist and broadcaster Declan Curry will be the keynote speaker.
Curry, with nearly 30 years of experience in reporting on business, the economy, and politics, frequently contributes to LBC News and occasionally appears on Classic FM and Capital Radio. His background includes presenting, producing, and reporting for various BBC radio and television programmes.
At the conference, Curry is set to discuss key issues affecting the bridging and development market, including his insights on the first hundred days of the new UK government, the outcomes of the US elections, and the election of the new Conservative Party leader.
Ed Hampson from Savills also will be speaking at the event, offering his perspective on the UK property market outlook. The BDLA plans to announce further speakers in the coming weeks.
The BDLA annual conference is targeted at its members, associate members, and guests. Members are entitled to two complimentary tickets, with additional tickets available at £200 each.
“This will actually be the first annual conference under our new branding, the BDLA, but this event has gone from strength to strength in recent years under our former branding and has become a must-attend date in the diary for bridging and development lenders, as well as associated businesses within the sector,” said Vic Jannels (pictured), chief executive of the Bridging & Development Lenders Association.
“The 2024 BDLA Annual Conference will be no exception. This event is not to be missed, and I would encourage all members and associate members of the BDLA to book their spot at our annual conference as soon as possible. Spaces are limited and you won’t want to miss out.”
