Getting the most from Cannes for Midem, MIPIM and MIP
One particularity of Cannes is that it hosts the most important trade fairs in a number of different industries.

Nouriel Roubini: impact of economics on real estate
While the financial quasi-meltdown caught most people by surprise, it was not news for Nouriel Roubini. He is one of the few analysts to have foreseen the problem.

MIPIM 2010 kicks off in Cannes
Mipim 2010 has kicked off in Cannes. The annual property market suffered a severe drop in attendance last year.

In confirmation of the trend at Midem last January, the Financial Times notes that despite the lower attendance, participants at Mipim 2009 were globally satisfied. “Whether attendees were down 10,000 or 20,000 is irrelevant, as the fewer that went were there to work, rather than drink and sunbathe”, it noted. Specifically, the market was taking [...]
MIPIM yacht rentals down, but that's hardly news
According to a report in Britain’s The Daily Telegraph, not all the 100 yachts that had been booked for Mipim will be used. In fact, they give the precise figure of 36 being cancelled. If true, this is not surprising. It’s obvious that given the current financing crisis, most companies are looking more carefully at [...]
MIPIM: book your hotels now
Programmed for March 10-13, the Mipim real estate trade fair looks like it will be busy despite the crisis in real estate worldwide.
