September 2026 – TBA, Bratislava
Slovakia’s residential property market is entering a period of recalibration. After several years defined by rapid price growth, shifting interest rates and evolving buyer expectations, developers, investors and city authorities are reassessing what makes a housing project viable and sustainable in the current cycle. Questions of affordability, financing conditions and delivery timelines are now as central to the discussion as design quality and location. At the same time, demographic trends, migration patterns and the growing importance of rental housing are reshaping demand across both Bratislava and regional cities.
This conference brings together leading market participants to examine how the sector is adapting and where the next opportunities and risks lie. Through focused panel discussions, participants will explore pricing dynamics and accessibility, the realities of development pipelines and permitting, and the long-term direction of sustainable and community-oriented living. The programme is designed to provide practical insight rather than theory, offering a platform for open dialogue between developers, lenders, investors, planners and advisors on what will define residential real estate in Slovakia over the coming years.

This panel will examine how buyer behaviour, pricing levels and borrowing conditions are shaping what people can realistically buy or rent across Slovakia’s cities. The discussion will also touch on differences between entry-level and higher-end housing and how lifestyle and work patterns are influencing location choices.
This session will focus on the practical realities of bringing projects to market, including construction costs, permitting timelines, financing structures and contractor availability. Speakers will share real project experiences and how developers adjust scale, phasing and unit mix in response to market signals.
Beyond pricing cycles and delivery volumes, residential real estate is increasingly influenced by sustainability requirements, demographic shifts and evolving lifestyle expectations. This panel will explore how energy performance, green certifications and climate resilience are becoming standard considerations in new housing, while ageing populations and migration trends continue to reshape demand patterns across cities. Speakers will also examine the growing importance of mixed-use, community-focused environments that integrate housing with retail, services and public space, as well as the role of smart home solutions, PropTech and digital platforms in improving both operational efficiency and the resident experience.
This session will examine the conditions under which new or refurbished office developments make practical and financial sense in the current market. The discussion will focus on real tenant demand rather than headline figures, looking at how space quality, flexibility, operating costs and location influence leasing decisions. Speakers will also address the importance of early tenant commitments, refurbishment versus new-build strategies, and how lenders and equity partners assess risk before supporting a project. The aim is to clarify which combinations of design, timing and financing can turn an office concept into a sustainable and occupied asset rather than an uncertain investment.
