Future of TMT in spotlight at Summit
Hundreds of the property industry’s finest gathered in London for the second annual London Property Summit last month.
Held at the Queen Elizabeth II conference centre in Westminster – and staged by Movers & Shakers with London First – the event attracted a first-class line-up of speakers.
Estates Gazette editor Damian Wild chaired a session on the future of TMT – with Derwent’s Paul Williams, Argent’s David Partridge and, by video, Google’s Matt Brittin – while planning minister ?Nick Boles and Labour London spokesman Sadiq Khan bookended the day’s discussions.

Riders carry Banner for cancer charity
A Banner Homes team enjoyed perfect weather as they embarked on a gruelling charity cycle from London to Paris.
The MAMILs (middle-aged men in Lycra) included Ross McArthur, Steve Rule, Marc Coulon and Piers Banfield from Banner Homes, Paul Hamilton from Towelrads.com and Mick Philpot from Philpot & Co. They raised more than £16,000 for Cancer Research UK.
As well as their professional connections, each of the riders had been touched in some way by cancer.
Braemar’s tache force prepare for Movember
Clean shaven and squeaky clean, this is BraeMo Estates’ Movember Army.
Good luck to the team from Braemar Estates and its associated companies: Ian Eaton, Rob Marley, Matt Faherty, Thomas Barber, Alex Cooke, Nathan Barkley and Ian Chatburn.
So which of them has the hairiest potential, we wonder?
Movember raises funds and awareness for prostate and testicular cancer and mental health issues through men sprouting moustaches from the beginning to the end of November.
You can donate to the BraeMo Army by going to: http://uk.movember.com/mospace/7603405.
This is a campaign the property industry has never shied away from, so send ?your Movember photos and stories to rebecca.kent@estatesgazette.com
