Monaco’s RI Properties is set to join some of Europe’s most elite real estate players at the Forbes Global Properties European Regional Meeting, taking place at the legendary Villa d’Este on the shores of Lake Como from Tuesday, May 7 to Wednesday, May 8.

Organised by Lombardy-based Majeli Vassart Properties, the annual summit—now in its third edition—brings together leading names from across the luxury property world for two days of networking, insight exchange, and property showcases. The setting? A 16th-century Italian villa known for hosting the world’s most powerful and polished.

Representing Monaco’s contribution to the event, Giovanni Paolo Risso and Johanna Rit of RI Properties will join top agents, brokers, and executives from across the Forbes Global Properties network. Their mission: to share market intelligence, present standout listings, and promote Monaco’s singular appeal to high-end buyers.

This year’s gathering underscores the ongoing growth and international reach of the Forbes Global Properties network, which now stretches across 27 countries and 600+ locations. In Europe, the network spans the Italian peninsula—from the vineyards of Tuscany to the sun-drenched coasts of Sardinia—with member firms such as Building Heritage, Rarex, Rizzotti Advisors, and Castellanum Real Estate.

Lake Como, with its classic villas and jet-set allure, is an apt choice for the event, offering attendees a taste of the lifestyle they help sell daily. Alongside strategic talks and curated tours of local properties, participants will also discuss the evolving demands of ultra-high-net-worth clients and how to best position luxury listings on the global stage.

RI Properties, the exclusive Forbes Global Properties representative in Monaco, specialises in discreet, off-market transactions. With a deep understanding of the Principality’s unique housing landscape and international clientele, the firm is positioned as a key player in the network’s European expansion.
