Site Visits: Seeing Is Believing

Investors commit when they have seen the land, the building, the licence area, the people and the plan. Site visits are limited to verified deal room investors, carefully managed for safety and confidentiality, and designed to answer the final questions that stand between interest and commitment. Delegates return to the venue for the afternoon Commitment Session, where the results are recorded.
