Reorb held a successful seminar in Cannes, where we heard from three main speakers and most of the attendees had a chance to contribute to the discussion.
Tom Inglis, Director of Reorb Ltd, spoke about the future of social media in commercial real estate. He discussed how business is currently using social media, why commercial real estate can particularly benefit from it, and how Reorb provides an essential platform to facilitate this.
Karen Cooksley, Head of Planning and Regeneration at Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP, spoke about her experience of using social media for public consultation in planning and development projects.
Lynette Lackey, Chairwoman-elect of Association of Women in Property, spoke about her desire to use social media to help her organisation's members network with one another more and directly share business opportunities.
After the main speeches, the attendees discussed a number of relevant issues, including the importance of trust in building professional relationships online, the best ways to use microblogging as a business tool, and whether companies will adopt social media because they recognise the immense opportunity it affords or because they feel threatened by how their competitors and potential customers are using it. |
