New Delhi [India], March 20 (ANI/NewsVoir): APP Delhi-NCR and NAR-India conducted a press conference recently to spread awareness regarding the 12th NAR-INDIA Annual Convention, which will be held on March 21st and 22nd 2021.
Besides shining a light on the challenges and opportunities in the real estate sector, the event will also act as a fundraiser to help the 17000 ft Foundation that is transforming school education in India’s youngest union territory- Ladakh.
The press conference was held at The Park Hotel Connaught Place and the agenda focused not only on the event but also on bringing like-minded philanthropists under a common platform.
The NAR-India Annual Convention been attended by thousands of national and international delegates and stakeholders (including real estate professionals, real estate developers, architects, financial institutions, etc.) for several years now and has offered them a platform to connect, collaborate, and educate all the industry stakeholders regarding the current challenges and future opportunities. The event will be graced by the presence of Geeta Phogat, Freestyle Wrestler.
This year, the event is being organized on both the offline and online platforms (hybrid mode) to extend networking opportunities within the country and maintain proper social distancing in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Andaz Delhi, Aerocity, has been chosen as the offline venue for the event. It is especially relevant in the new post-COVID era where new and never-before-thought opportunities and avenues have emerged out-of-the-blue and have cemented their place in our social and commercial infrastructure.
To explore, discuss, and share these ideas for the benefit of the entire industry and those connected with it is the primary aim and motive of this gathering.
“Education is the backbone of progress, and so far, Ladakh has been deprived of it, partly because of its geographical location and partly for socio-political reasons. However, now that it has become a union territory, things are beginning to change. The work that is being done by the 17000 ft Foundation is laudable, and we will aid them to the fullest of our capacity,” said Kshitij Nagpal, President, APP Delhi-NCR.
“Every child deserves a good education, and it’s unfortunate that so many children in such a strategically important part of the country have not had access to education for such a long time. Thanks to the 17000 ft Foundation, they will now get those well-deserved opportunities. Through our convention, we not only intend to highlight the issues of the real estate sector but also bring people’s attention towards the cause of education in our country,” said Ravi Varma, Chairman, NAR-India about the significance of the event.
“The two-day convention will not only allow NAR-India members to build their network, but it will also allow them to become a part of a larger cause – which is the cause of education in India’s newest union territory of Ladakh. We are anticipating plenty of good things from this event and we hope that it will help bring some positive changes in the society – especially in the context of the present scenario,” said Nitin Jain, President-Elect, APP Delhi-NCR.
“The real estate sector has undergone several paradigm-shifting changes during the pandemic and this year’s convention will help shine a light on those changes. By getting people from different sectors of the real estate industry on a common platform, we will be able to spark strategic discussions aimed at resolving the issues with the sector – both old and new. The event will also act as a fundraiser for the 17000 ft Foundation that is working tirelessly to promote education in Ladakh. I believe that it is a great cause and will eventually contribute to the progress of the nation,” said Tarun Bhatia, President-Elect, NAR-India.

New Delhi [India], March 20 (ANI/NewsVoir): International migration has been a quiet achiever for Australia. The demand for skilled workers in Australia as the government pushes for post-pandemic recovery is looking positive.
The top areas in demand of skilled workers include the following: Health care and social assistance, professional, scientific and technical services, education and training and construction.
Australia’s migration modelling demonstrates that a post-COVID-19 recovery can be driven by business and consumers. Australia’s response to COVID-19 has clearly accelerated migration possibilities.
The agility shown by the government and businesses in responding to the challenge of COVID-19 has been embraced as the default and several pathways have been opened up for people across the globe to migrate to Australia.
“There has always been a demand in the health care sector, tech, infrastructure, logistics and many. Moreover, we are likely to see a high-demand due to COVID-19. A prominent sector to look out for is IT services. Due to current circumstances, there have been growing demands for IT workers especially IT support staff, IT-enabled service providers and call-center workers,” commented Thara S Namboothiri, Flyworld on the situation.
Critical sectors have been identified as relevant for a number of sectors, including prioritisation of certain visa programs. Healthcare, medical, construction, AgTech space and advanced manufacturing, fintech, energy and mining technology, MedTech, cybersecurity, quantum information, advanced digital, data science and ICT are some sectors to watch for in 2021.
Many sectors will be critical to Australia’s recovery from the economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic. The continued operation of key industries in each state will be critical to the economic recovery of Australia overall.
As Australia has been relatively successful to date managing COVID-19, it is benefitting from increased interest from potential immigrants as a result of this competent approach to public health.
Australia, being perceived as a safe destination is attractive to workers (skilled and unskilled) as a place to live and work. These migrants are helping plug the gaps across the Australian workforce.
Furthermore, the Global Talent Independent program (GTI) provides a streamlined and prioritized pathway for highly skilled talented overseas-born individuals to work and live permanently in Australia.
GTI is specifically designed for attracting skilled migrants to the top future-focused fields to Australia. Under the new program, highly skilled migrants in certain selected industries will get a fast-tracked or expedited processing for their Australian permanent residency.
The Global Talent Independent Program intends to draw the best, exceptional global professionals from seven growth sectors to Australia. These sectors are- space & advanced manufacturing, AgTech (Agriculture Technology), energy & mining technology, quantum information, advanced digital, data science and ICT, FinTech (Financial Technology), MedTec (Medical Technology) and cybersecurity.
The professionals who get a Visa under this category can take advantage of Australia’s business-friendly regulatory policies, more significant opportunities for innovation and a better lifestyle as well. There are 15,000 positions open under the GTI program in 2020-21.
If the economic rebound can be sustained by the government and together with the vaccine roll-out, a stronger than anticipated growth awaits in 2021 for Australia’s migration possibilities.
Australia will be a more desirable destination to live and work in due to our relatively successful management of COVID-19. The nation shows signs to remain open to recent migration levels.
The quantum and ‘quality’ (skilled versus unskilled) of migrants will shape productivity outcomes and affect demand for housing and infrastructure positively.
