City Cannes do

5/ 2/2008


MANCHESTER will make a splash at the property businesses' big seaside bash.

Local developers and property consultants are already packing their bags for MIPIM - the annual gathering of the property world held at Cannes, in France.

MIPIM 2008, from March 11-14, is expected to be larger than ever with 30,000 delegates from around the world.

The UK is among the biggest attenders, with more than 1,500 companies, and Greater Manchester's is thought to be the largest delegation from outside London.

MIPIM is the acronym for Le Marché International des Professionnels de l'Immobilier.

The M.E.N. will be represented with its largest delegation lead by Business editor Chris Barry and Homes editor Jill Burdett.

The Manchester Partnership, led by Marketing Manchester and the city council, is among the largest exhibitors and has used the event to launch major projects and regeneration initiatives.

Last year, the Cannes gathering saw the announcement of a substantial redevelopment of Bolton town centre. This year, announcements are expected on a series of large mixed-use schemes throughout the north west.

Dominic Pozzoni, director at Manchester-based Property Alliance Group, said: "Last year, we had a big presence at MIPIM and proudly flew the flag for Manchester as one of the city council's partners.

"The event was a huge success for us - not only in terms of helping put Manchester's property industry on the international map but also in the contacts we made.

"It is such a vast event and, while we had limited our expectations for our first trip, we cannot recommend it enough now.

"We made genuine, worthwhile contacts and the event provided the opportunity to meet people that would be more difficult to see on a day-to-day basis.

"The relationships we built there created tangible deals for us in 2007 and kept us very busy."
