MIPIM 2026 took place from 9 to 13 March at the Palais des Festivals in Cannes. The organiser's review describes the fair as an international meeting place for investors, owners, developers and other market participants. This announcement, originally published in February, sets out the energy topics NeoBid intended to discuss at MIPIM.
Treat energy as part of property strategy
Energy costs, market volatility, regulatory requirements and ESG objectives influence investment and property management decisions. Energy supply therefore belongs in the asset and portfolio strategy of professional owners.
NeoBid placed dialogue between the property and energy industries at the centre of its MIPIM planning. The focus was on transparent decisions for different properties, contractual structures and risk profiles.
Discuss procurement, data and on-site generation together
Five connected topics were planned for the discussions:
Energy procurement: Consumption and contract structures as the basis for a procurement strategy suited to the portfolio.
Market volatility: Price risks and procurement decision rules.
Long-term procurement: Applications and requirements of power purchase agreements for property portfolios.
Metering and energy data: Transparency as a prerequisite for planning and management.
Decentralised generation: Integrating photovoltaics into existing supply arrangements.
Considering these topics together helps identify interactions between energy procurement, operating costs and sustainability objectives.
Continue the professional dialogue
Personal discussions with owners, investors and market partners provide an opportunity to understand day-to-day property challenges and develop solutions. NeoBid's aim remains to make energy decisions transparent, commercially understandable and viable over the long term.
These questions remain relevant after MIPIM. If you would like to assess procurement, your data foundation or on-site generation across your portfolio, we can continue the discussion based on your specific circumstances.
