Major investments and developments feature in presentations at the TVPF


Ascot Racecourse will be the venue on September 12 for the annual Thames Valley Property Forum, and will host more than 150 delegates interested in celebrating all aspects of the Thames Valley commercial property market. The one-day conference will present five sessions on the major investments and developments happening across the region and will also be a showcase for all those interested in investing, developing or supplying services to the commercial, industrial and retail property markets in the Thames Valley


Presentations and briefings will include sessions on the future plans for the redevelopment of Station Hill in Reading, review of the changing nature of the occupational mix across the Thames Valley, update on WRAtH rail connection to Heathrow and the Heart of Slough project, further details on the Bracknell Regeneration scheme to re-develop the town centre and finally an overview of the Heathrow Airport debate and the implications for the region of a move towards a hub airport solution following the Davies Commission.


New this year will be the launch by Hicks Baker of the 2013 edition of the Reading Development and Investment Review which will be the 11th update of this major report.
