Private Equity & Family Office

European family offices and private equity funds are increasing their real estate allocations in 2026, with Southern Europe — and Spain in particular — gaining ground as a destination for capital seeking better risk-adjusted returns than more saturated northern markets. With significant dry powder ready to deploy, the question is no longer availability of capital but conviction on timing, structure and local execution. The session will debate where this capital is actually going in Southern Europe — which sectors, ticket sizes and structures are gaining traction — and what these investors need from local platforms and intermediaries to deploy at scale. The capital is there. The question is no longer if these investors will move — it is what they will back, and who they will trust to execute.
