Brexit, negotiating and comedy set to dominate agents’ conference

A diverse cast-list has been announced for this year’s Relocation Agent Network national conference and exhibition to be staged in London later this month. 

The 2018 speaker line-up for the event on November 23 includes ex-funds manager Darren Shirlaw who will provide an economic forecast for the next five years, including how Brexit will impact the housing market; there’s also David Meade, a corporate discussing how to find and retain the best employees; plus learning and development guru Malcolm Smith will help delegates understand how to maintain value during a negotiation.

The black tie dinner in the evening is to be hosted by comedian and television personality, Katherine Ryan.

The day’s trade exhibition gives delegates the opportunity to meet with key estate agency suppliers including platinum sponsor OnTheMarket as well as additional sponsors including The ValPal Network, Moneypenny and Reapit.

This year’s format again includes speed sharing roundtables and workshops, each one hosted by an expert in their field.

From compliance and innovative technology, to marketing and effective communication, the new format gives delegates the opportunity to choose the topics that they want to learn more about.

Relocation Agent Network personally selects each of its members, basing criteria on quality of service, local knowledge and professionalism. Through its affiliation with Cartus, a provider of global relocation services, Relocation Agent Network members help Cartus move relocating families in and out of areas across England, Scotland and Wales. 

“We’ve got some of the UK’s top business experts delivering keynotes, a whole host of engaging and informative workshops and breakout sessions, and a trade exhibition packed with suppliers ready to share the very latest industry innovations with our delegates … It’s going to be a brilliant celebratory occasion” explains Richard Tucker, Relocation Agent Network’s managing director.
