Student Accommodation Summit 2019
Embedding a Long-Term, Strategic Approach for Your Student Accommodation to Ensure Global Competitiveness
Student Accommodation has become one of the fastest growing sectors for commercial real estate, with education overall contributing $32.2 billion to the Australian economy.
Attracting a growing percentage of international students, Australia’s major universities remain a destination for overseas students, with Victoria accounting for approximately 36% of all enrollments.
Student accommodation providers have begun to notice the need to develop innovative solutions and strategies to meet supply and demand. Incorporating student accommodation into a campus master plan is one way to do this, as well as learning strategies to future-proof these residencies.
