Who We Are

The ULI UK Young Leaders Committee curates events and content for the Young Leader cohort in the United Kingdom. The committee is made up of professionals across the built environment and land use industry and is chaired by Theodora Beckett and Vice Chaired by Louis Lallouette.

The Urban Land Institute’s Young Leaders (“YL”) programme is open to all real estate professionals under the age of 35 and provides professionals in the early stages of their career with a unique forum to network with their peers, gain exposure to senior industry professionals and continue their professional education and development. The UK has the largest contingent of young leaders in Europe with over 400 members.

Vision Statement

The YL Committee seeks to enable innovative and exciting interdisciplinary programming for Young Leaders, to spread knowledge, expand networks and showcase good practice/high-quality conversations happening within the built environment industry.

The Committee aims to achieve to these ambitions by building on the past (how we got here), present (current good practice), and future (innovations and emerging trends) of the land use industry; to create an engaging programme of events and activities to inspire young professionals across the UK.  This approach is supported by the wider ULI infrastructure creating a unique forum for the industry leaders of tomorrow to engage with the leaders of today, and to connect local expertise with global knowledge across the entire spectrum of real estate disciplines.

The Committee champions diversity and inclusion within the industry, promoting thought leadership, inclusive innovation, and a land use industry for all.
