Connecting with the Global Property and Construction Community
The Cardium team were delighted to be back in Cannes for MIPIM 2025 — the world’s leading real estate event.
Representing the firm were Directors Matt Clark and Chris MacQueen alongside CFO Andrew Veale and Solicitor Hannah Clarke.
The four-day event brings together key players from across the international property, construction and investment sectors, offering an invaluable opportunity for Cardium to engage with clients, collaborators and new contacts from across the globe.
Construction Specialists
As a boutique law firm specialising in construction and commercial litigation, we have always placed great importance on staying close to the heart of the industry.
MIPIM gives us a unique chance to take the temperature of the market, understand the evolving challenges faced by developers and contractors, and sharing insights into how strategic dispute resolution can support businesses in navigating uncertainty and unlocking growth.
Despite the unusually wet, windy and cold weather for the south of France, the event was once again a huge success, and our team came away with a rosy glow from a week well spent, if not suntans.
Building Relationships
Across a busy schedule of meetings, lunches, dinners and networking events, the Cardium team reconnected with longstanding clients and built relationships with new industry players.
These face-to-face interactions are a vital part of what we do — offering space not only to discuss legal strategy, but to hear first-hand the commercial realities our clients are dealing with, from shifting regulatory frameworks to global supply chain disruption.
One of the key takeaways from this year’s event was a cautious optimism. While challenges remain — from financing pressures to climate resilience — there is also clear appetite for innovation, collaboration, and progress.
Forward Thinking
The firms, funds and professionals gathered at MIPIM reflect an industry that is forward-thinking, international and ambitious — qualities we share at Cardium.
As the sector continues to evolve, we remain committed to delivering high-quality, specialist legal advice that helps our clients build with confidence.
