In this week’s Tech Talk Radio hosted by EG’s Emily Wright and Samantha McClary, the man behind the new offices at Sky reveals why clean lines and “grown up design” should be the future of successful workplaces. Neil Usher also reveals his pet hates when it comes to office interiors  (spoiler alert, filament lightbulbs do not fare well in his estimations) but concedes that the table tennis table has its place in the evolution of workplace design. For more on where he thinks workplace trends are heading next, tune in to this week’s episode.

Meet Phil Dawson, Allied London's former head of brand & marketing and founder of This Must Be The Place agency, which aims to shake up developers' community contributions. 

 

 

In this episode of TECHTALK RADIO, co-hosts Emily Wright and Samantha McClary, take a look at how the UK's agent community has come together to start sharing data. And how there is a growing realisation among agents that sharing means more, not less, power. In a rare blowing of our own trumpet, we talk to our home team (commercial director Tom Gaynor and product manager Tom Pilkington, we call them TomTom) about a new product our tech team is developing with the industry to "make it a lot easier, to be a lot better".

Welcome back to the first episode of 2018’s series of TECHTALK RADIO podcasts. A new year and a new jingle. What more could you want? Apart from the first in series of must-listen interviews. This week co-hosts Emily Wright and Samantha McClary sit down with Metaprop’s Aaron Block and Zak Schwarzman to talk about world domination and gender equality (Who runs the world?) and talk with Mike Molloy’s about new proptech start-up Dashflow.

From the Taylor Review and gig economy to the apprenticeship levy and gender pay gap reporting, 2017 was a big year for employment law.

EG talks to Clare Gilroy-Scott, partner at Goodman Derrick LLP, to find out how those changes have impacted the property industry and what’s in store in 2018 – including the GDPR.

As university students settle into their real estate careers the property world is being transformed by technology, with around 90% of the core tasks that surveyors currently train for being altered.

Will this spell the death of the agent? No. But it will mean they will need to perform some roles with a greater deal of emphasis in order to advance their careers?

In this tech panel discussion at Oxford Brookes University in November 2017, in partnership with CBRE and KPMG and presented by EG, experts discuss what those roles are and how to sharpen your skills in an era of automation to secure your job. Plus find out the shape of things to come for the rest of the built environment sector.

The panel:

Alex Bailes, head of product engineering, CBRE
Eden Dwek, manager, Tech Growth, KPMG
Savannah de Savary, founder and chief executive, Built-ID
Brittany Hurley, senior director - UK, VTS
Chair: Damian Wild, Editor, EG
