2023 AGENDA

About The Housebuilding Summit

 

Newspaper headlines as far back as 2017 predicted Ireland’s housing market was on the verge of a perfect storm. Today, we surely are in the thick of that storm! There is no need to itemise the challenges the housebuilding sector is facing, but it’s virtually certain that the market is slowing down significantly and will decline sharply next year.

Is the current storm a fatal blow to the delivery of Housing for All? Or can innovative, radical action save the delivery of our housing plan?

The IHBA’s one-day Housebuilding Summit is the must-attend event for housebuilders, developers, policymakers, local authorities, housing associations, key partners and suppliers. We will explore how we speed up the delivery of homes. We will be asking can we deliver housing for all in the coming decade and if so how do we achieve it? The Summit will provide a national platform for key stakeholders and industry voices to share details of upcoming developments and discuss major issues and challenges.

Topics will include:

  • Policy and market update
  • Cost inflation and viability: Strategies to address construction cost inflation
  • Streamlining and speeding up delivery: Reaction to the review of our planning laws
  • Ireland’s new large-scale residential development (LSRD) scheme: Is it a faster and fairer system?
  • The Housing Commission one year on: Making a difference or too early to tell?
  • Improving housing density: How can we provide affordable housing in high density development?
  • Transform and reuse: How adaptive reuse can help solve the housing crisis
  • Activating stalled planning permissions: What are the practical solutions?
  • Building a zero-carbon Ireland: What’s in the plan and how will it be delivered?
  • Offsite made simple: What are the biggest drivers that enable the change to offsite delivery?
