More than 2,500 property professionals, including investors from 30 countries, descended on Tokyo this week for MIPIM Japan.
The event is fuelling interest in the city, with CBRE ranking Tokyo as second only to London in the league table of leading investible cities.
Speaking at the event, AXA Real Estate head of Asia Frank Khoo said his company planned to invest as much as $1bn (£640m) in Japan as it was “under allocated”.
While Generali global head of real estate research Jacques Plas told an Estates Gazette panel debate at the event that his firm planned to ramp up its investment in London.
