During PROVADA, INREV and PROVADA are organizing a timely and internationally oriented session on the future of residential investment. In “From Europe to the Netherlands: Aligning Housing Policy and Investment,” leading experts will explore how Dutch housing policy compares to broader European investment strategies—and what this means for investors, developers, and policymakers.
With insights from, among others, Iryna Pylypchuk, Mark Siezen, Robert Jan Foortse, and David Inskip, it promises to be a substantive discussion on capital flows, regulation, and the attractiveness of the Netherlands as an investment market. A must-visit for anyone involved in the housing market and international real estate investment.

Not a man of one company, but a man of movements. His strength? Not shouting from the sidelines, but starting new companies himself that set the market in motion and challenge existing systems. That's how the jury of the PROVADA Inspiration Award 2026 describes winner Michel Baars. 'Michel gives direction to our entire construction and real estate sector.'

For three days, the real estate sector stood shoulder to shoulder at RAI Amsterdam. With a record number of visitors, a packed programme and plenty of energy, PROVADA 2026 was an edition to remember. Below, we look back at the highlights — and at the end you'll find the photos and aftermovie to relive it all.

At PROVADA 2026, the PROVADA Inspiration Award 2026 was presented to Michel Baars. The award is presented annually to an individual who realises sustainable change within the built environment through vision, courage and decisiveness. This year's presentation marks the award's fifth edition.
