Emerging Property Developers Summit (EPDS) 2026

The Emerging Property Developers Summit (EPDS) is South Africa's premier platform for emerging property developers, bringing together government, investors, financiers, decision-makers, and built environment professionals to drive collaboration, investment, and business growth.

Now in its third annual edition, EPDS has welcomed more than 875 delegates over the past two years. Previous summits have featured National Ministers, Executive Mayors, Municipal Managers, senior government executives, CEOs of Development Finance Institutions (DFIs), national built environment organisations, private sector CEOs, and other influential industry leaders.

EPDS is more than a conference, it's a platform that connects developers with funding opportunities, strategic partnerships, industry knowledge, and valuable networks to help turn development opportunities into successful projects.
