Ealing is to pitch itself as West London’s growth engine at a major property and investment conference at Guildhall in the City next week.
Representatives from Ealing Council, including leader Councillor Peter Mason, cabinet members and senior officers, will join developers, investors and policymakers at the London Real Estate Forum on 17 September 2025. The event forms part of the borough’s inward investment programme, Good for Ealing, which aims to attract jobs, address inequality and tackle the climate crisis.
Promoting Ealing as a place that offers both “the economic activity, bustle and connections of an inner London borough, with the green spaces and lifestyle offer of outer London”, the council will highlight its transport links, including five Elizabeth line stations, proximity to Heathrow and the Old Oak HS2 hub.
The borough is home to the Imperial WestTech Corridor and the UK’s largest regeneration project at Old Oak and Park Royal. Central to its pitch is the Metropolitan Centre, located between Heathrow and the City, with a pipeline of 30,000sqm of commercial space valued at more than £300m.
Councillor Mason will join panels on the future of Old Oak and on polycentric growth in Ealing, alongside senior figures from British Land, Investra Capital and the Greater London Authority. Council officials will also take part in sessions on sustainable data centres and housing delivery.
Councillor Mason said: “We are focusing our efforts on bringing good, well-paid jobs back to the borough, and bringing wealth and resilience to every part of the borough and all residents. That is why attending the London Real Estate Forum is important to us. It gives us the opportunity to attract new investment into the borough and proactively shape this investment to ensure it meets the needs and aspirations of our communities.”
