Building the right foundations for increased housing delivery… How do we deliver 250,000 new homes by 2030?

About us

Over the next two decades billions of euro will be invested in housing and infrastructure. Underpinning this investment is the soon to be published revised National Planning Framework, some of which we've already heard about, namely the new housing targets  averaging out at just over 50,000 a year up to 2030. The framework will emphasise the goal of " compact” development, with more people living closer to city and town centres. Building this housing amid cost, labour and planning pressures will be the key challenges facing Irish homebuilders. Crucial to our success in delivering these homes is a ramped-up supply of the raw materials of the building trade: Zoned and serviced land ready for development. Going into its 6th year, the IHBA’s annual summit explores  these key factors and challenges  offering insights and solutions  to advance best practices in housing development. Where innovation and pragmatic solutions meet, our event offers collaboration, best practice learning and the conversations needed to achieve as an industry. This is a must-attend event for homebuilders, developers, local authorities, housing associations, key partners and suppliers. So, mark the date and bring your teams to keep abreast of industry trends, engage with quality content and speakers, network and meet fellow industry professionals who understand the challenges ahead.
