Speaking at PropertyPortalWatch Workshop – San Francisco – August 4th

Fellow Nestorlinians

it’s my pleasure to announce that I and Javier (fellow Lokku founder) will be speaking at this August’s Property Portal Watch Workshop in San Francisco.

For those that don’t know, over the last year Property Portal Watch has become the leading global forum to comment on the online property industry. If you read our blog, you should be be reading PPW. More importantly, if you are a senior decision maker at a property portal you should probably be attending the workshop.

Our one hour session will not be about Nestoria, but rather about the common challenges we see property portals across all markets facing and the innovative solutions we see different players adopting. While every market has it’s peculiarities, it is remarkable how similar the difficulties are for all players, particularly those that come from an offline/print heritage. If you have any thoughts on what you’d like to hear, or questions you’d like addressed, please let us know. I’m looking forward to a heated question and answer exchange as well. We’ll post the presentation here afterwards.

The workshop is of course just the first day of the Inman Conference. We attended the first PPW workshop at January’s NYC Inman conference and last summer’s Inman Connect in San Francisco. Both were great events, with a diverse group of speakers and vendors from the real estate and technology industries. Most of all it’s a good chance to get above the day to day grind and reflect on the broader trends and new technologies effecting the industry.

We hope to see you there!
