In a world where regeneration is booming, cranes are back on the skyline, and competition for investment is fiercer than ever, there’s one golden rule:
If you want to build it – you’ve got to brand it.
There’s no better place to talk about turning developments into destinations than UKREiiF – the UK’s biggest real estate investment and infrastructure forum, happening this week in Leeds. But beyond the packed panels and high-powered networking, there’s one gathering we’re especially fired up about: the Midday Meet-Ups, hosted by Centrick, featuring a heavyweight crew of placemaking partners (including us, Hollywood Monster).
So, what’s it all about? And more importantly – what does it mean for property pros looking to create developments that actually get noticed?
UKREiiF: The Deal-Making Engine of the Built Environment
For those not yet familiar, UKREiiF (The UK’s Real Estate Investment & Infrastructure Forum) has fast become the can’t-miss date in the calendar for anyone serious about shaping the future of UK cities.
Over 12,000 public and private sector professionals are descending on Leeds to connect, collaborate, and get deals done. We’re talking investors, developers, local authorities, masterplanners, architects, and everyone in between.
But while the event covers everything from net zero to housing strategy, one thing is clear: if your project doesn’t stand out visually – it won’t stand a chance.
And that’s where we come in.
Enter: Midday Meet-Ups – Where Big Ideas Get Branded
Running throughout the event, Centrick’s Midday Meet-Ups are designed to cut through the noise and bring together people who want more than surface-level conversation. It’s where ideas grow into action – with input from some of the sharpest operators in the game.

From Blank Canvas to Brand Statement: Your Site Deserves Better Than Boring
At Hollywood Monster, we believe signage isn’t just a legal requirement. It’s a statement of intent.
It tells your story long before the doors open.
From construction hoardings that spark curiosity to building wraps that turn scaffolding into showstoppers, we help brands – and places – get seen, remembered, and talked about.
Need proof? Take a look at our property and construction solutions:
Whether you’re marketing a new development, rebranding a commercial site, or launching a build-to-rent scheme, your visuals matter more than ever. They drive footfall, attract investors, and shape public perception from day one.
And in the race to stand out at events like UKREiiF – and beyond – a killer wrap or branded hoarding might just be your most powerful marketing tool.
Why We’re at UKREiiF – And Why You Should Be Too
We’re here because we believe property deserves more than bricks and mortar.
It deserves character. Identity. Impact.
We’ve worked with some of the biggest names in the business to turn development sites into brand powerhouses – and we know how to make your vision visible.
So whether you’re heading to UKREiiF to pitch, partner, or simply get inspired, make time for the Midday Meet-Ups. Meet our chairman, Tim Andrews MBE, and let’s talk about how signage, print, and storytelling can turn your next project into a place people genuinely remember.

Don’t Just Build It. Brand It.
With billions being invested in UK regeneration, the window to get noticed is short – and shrinking.
If your development blends in, it gets overlooked.
If your brand disappears behind the boards, so does your opportunity.
We’re Hollywood Monster.
We turn construction sites into marketing assets.
We turn blank spaces into monster-sized brand stories.
See you in Leeds. Let’s make something big.
