Participation

Sporting together, making new contacts, and exchanging knowledge: that is Holland Property Bike & Hike. During this sporty, informal yet business-like networking event, decision-makers from the real estate sector come together for a two-day, fully catered bike & hike event. We expect +/- 80 participants including public and private directors, decision-makers from local and central government, and (inter)national investors.

The participation package for individual participants includes:

  • Start Thursday 20 June 18:00 in Enschede (walk-in from 16:00) until Saturday 22 June 18:00.
  • Thursday evening dinner and programme about the development of Enschede and the economic and real estate opportunities in the city and region, at the invitation of Jeroen Diepemaat, alderman of the Municipality of Enschede.
  • Reception and two overnight stays at the attractive U Parkhotel on the University of Twente campus (rated 4 stars).
  • Two days active programme with a choice of:
    • HPBike (accessible to both sporty recreational and experienced road cyclists) with a daily cycling distance of 100, 120 or 140 km. Accompanied by NTFU guides, technical support from mechanics and service buses.
    • HPHike with a daily walking distance of +/- 20 km, accompanied by an experienced walking guide.
  • Fully catered programme incl. breakfast, lunches, drinks & dinners.
  • Access to the HPBike app. Within the app, it is possible to connect with other real estate decision-makers participating in HPBike.

 

Johan Moolenaar (Concern Director Spatial & Economic Municipality of Apeldoorn): “I not only meet colleagues from other municipalities, but also real estate investors, developers and consultants. Moreover, those two days give you time to have good conversations. You get to know each other well, without any direct interest.”
