The event - which takes place virtually on Wednesday, June 23 – gives attendees chance to get further insight into some of the key issues facing the industry, such as the Future Homes Standard, carbon net zero and the growing role of modern methods of construction and modular homes.
Andrew Carpenter, chief executive of Constructing Excellence Midlands, said: "We're delighted to have secured such a stellar lineup for this year's Housing Summit, which promises to provide a real insight into how both the public and private sector are working to tackle the UK's housing crisis.
Constructing Excellence Midlands is working in partnership with Birmingham City Council in helping them achieve their ambitious housing targets.
Colette McCann, acting assistant director of housing development at Birmingham City Council said: "CE Midlands provides a unique opportunity and platform that brings together a wide range of members within the construction industry.
"I am very much looking forward to attending the CE Midlands Housing Summit to discuss innovative ideas and solutions to the challenges our sector faces, particularly in the delivery of affordable housing."
Andrew Carpenter continued: "As we come out of the other side of the pandemic, housing has to be one of the critical areas of the construction industry. With house prices continuing to rise, affordable, sustainable housing is coming to the fore more than ever before, and we have pulled together a speaker lineup that reflects this."
