In 2018, the Association launched a new initiative to support the next generation of industry leaders. We organise bespoke events and activities specifically targeted at younger members of staff from CPA member companies (those with less than 10 years working in City real estate).
The lead sponsor for CPA NextGen in 2020 is Gardiner & Theobald. Read more about our partnership here.
The programme is driven by a steering group made up of talented young staff from CPA member companies to drive the initiative. They come from a range of companies, including agents, architects, developers and investors.
