Connecting Leaders, Shaping Markets: Executive Meeting Series Europe.

Executive conversations today defining Europe’s residential living landscape tomorrow.

The GSL Executive Meeting Series is your invitation to be part of a ground-breaking journey across four of Europe’s most dynamic markets: Portugal, Germany, Italy, and the Netherlands. Far from being stand-alone meetings, these forums form a lead-up to our flagship Investor Summit European event in Málaga on 7-8 May 2026, designed to build insight, trust and collaboration among senior leaders across the student living, co-living and alternative residential sectors. 

The purpose of the series is to bring together a curated group of C-level executives, investors, developers, and operators to explore regional challenges and opportunities, share best practices, and set the agenda for how we collectively shape tomorrow’s residential living paradigms. Each stop offers a focused forum to understand local regulation, investment climates, ESG expectations, and supply/demand dynamics.

What Industry Leaders Are Saying.


I’ve enjoyed the Summit very much. It’s a diverse audience, great engagement and questions. The panels have been both topical and diverse like the participants. It’s been a great day of learning, and I would sincerely recommend it.

Veronica Jarvis, Vice President, Slate Asset Management


We have institutional investors, private equity, operators. It has brought all of that altogether under one place, so the ability to really meet a huge breadth of clients right across has been really invaluable.

Richard Fisher, European Head of Portfolio Management, GSA


The past GSL Investors Summits have been enriching in terms of expanding my network, learning from others, and exchanging views about our business. I got to know an amazing group of people who are willing to share experiences and are also fun to hang out with. The willingness to share and help each other in our line of business is truly unique!

Duco de Jong, CFO, Student Experience


The GSL Investor Summit is an unmissable event for anyone in the residential living sector. The opportunity to engage with key industry leaders, share insights, and discuss trends in an intimate, collaborative setting is invaluable. The sessions are always thought-provoking and the networking opportunities are second to none.
