MAXIMISING MIPIM

Another year and another MIPIM passes – we hope our tips were helpful and that you had a brilliant event. Now comes the all-important follow-up to nurture the new relationships we have forged.

And networking doesn’t stop here. We’re involved in several more events across the year and we hope to see you at some of them.

Property Awards: 4 April 2017, The Grosvenor, London

The Property Awards celebrate excellence across the industry, from deals to finance, sustainability to proptech, and rising stars to working environments property companies provide for their staff.

Holistic is delighted to be sponsoring the Sustainability Achievement of the Year Award and looks forward to announcing the winner on the night.

Little Britain Challenge Cup: 15-16 September 2017, Cowes

Holistic’s MD Sophie is on the LBCC committee again this year and it’s all change as the event celebrates its 30^th birthday.

There’s been a complete pricing overhaul so it’s better value than ever. There’s more variety. The Island Sailing Club – the organisers of the world’s largest sailing event, the Round the Island race – will be creating a bespoke racing schedule to suit all classes. There’s a new venue: Shepards Wharf. It has its own dedicated marina, the Sugar Store where there’ll be festival-style onshore events and a food extravaganza each night.

It’s an excellent event for team building – from within your own business, from your projects or from your favourite clients and contacts. And it’s all for charity – what’s not to love!

UK Construction Week: 10-12 October 2017, Birmingham NEC

UK Construction Week is the UK’s largest construction trade event. Taking place at the Birmingham NEC, the event unites over 650 exhibitors with an audience of over 30,000 trade visitors. Holistic is pleased to be working with the UKCW team to promote the event, construction as a career and the innovation spearheaded by the industry.

Chicks with Bricks, London

Chicks with Bricks is a proactive network for established and emerging women in the construction industry. It also provides invaluable support for the Prince’s Trust.

The volume and calibre of attendees at each event are outstanding, as we saw again at this year’s MIPM event. Keep an eye on the website for future events and get involved.

Young Entrepreneurs in Property (YEP), London, Manchester, Cambridge and Dubai

YEP is a networking organisation for young people in property and construction.

The go-to organisation for entrepreneurs, rising stars and future leaders in the industry, it’s is all about building relationships, learning new skills and sharing ideas within a fun and friendly environment.

Go Dutch will be back next year and so we wanted to end this year’s post with the words of our guests. We hope to see even more of you next year!
