In this roundtable, we collected thoughts and predictions for the future of purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) in the next year from professionals in university accommodation and in the development and operations of PBSA.

Our panel discussed their strategies implemented by institutions, PBSA operators and developers as they prepared their students, staff and general operations for the year ahead.
