Municipal real estate management is becoming increasingly complex. New legislation and regulations, financial challenges, changing space requirements, social responsibilities and sustainability ambitions all require both clarity and decisive action.
During Grip op Gemeentelijk Vastgoed, together with partner XXelerate, we will bring together professionals from Dutch municipalities for an inspiring afternoon of practical insights, relevant topics and peer exchange.
Location: De Basiliek, Veenendaal
Date: 29 October 2026
