It's that time of year again when Manchester attends MIPIM. Hopefully we'll get to see some new proposals or new renders of current proposals. Manchester MIPIM 2008 website below article.

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."

Jet2.com to fly “Manchester” aircraft to Nice for MIPIM 2011

Travellers from the North of England heading to next year's international property trade show MIPIM 2011 in Southern France will now be able to fly direct from Manchester, thanks to a new dedicated service announced today by MAG Developments and airline Jet2.com.

It is the first time such a service has been offered from Manchester Airport and has come about as a direct result of feedback from business travellers in the region.

John Atkins, Managing Director of MAG Developments, said: “We know from previous years that significant demand exists for this service, as MIPIM is a vital opportunity for securing future investment in the property sector for Greater Manchester.”

MAG Developments is the property and development arm of the Manchester Airports Group (MAG), responsible for the management and development of commercial property and land at Manchester Airport – the two companies are joint key sponsors of the Manchester at MIPIM Partnership.

Andrew Harrison, Manchester Airport’s Managing Director, added: “Working in close partnership with MAG Developments, we have put together a unique package that represents fantastic value and is already proving very attractive to many people flying to MIPIM from the North of England.”

The flight, which will be operated by Jet2.com’s unique “Manchester” branded Boeing-737 aircraft (G-CELI), is part of an exclusive Manchester Airport MIPIM Experience travel package that also includes free airport car parking, private check-in with a generous 23kg baggage allowance; fast-track security clearance; and entry into the new £1.5million Escape Lounge in Terminal 1 for complimentary food and drinks. Luxury coach transfers between Nice International Airport and nearby Cannes for MIPIM are also included in the price of £400.00 per person (inc. taxes).

David Partridge, Joint Chief Executive of property development company, Argent, said: “The 2011 Manchester Partnership is stronger than ever, and it's no surprise that MIPIM 2011 delegates have made use of this fantastic opportunity. Manchester is the only city outside London currently capable of filling an airliner. It's a real testament to the city's commitment to property development and to showcasing Manchester on an international stage and of the continuing confidence of the sector in the future of Manchester.”

A limited number of seats on the flight remain – interested parties should contact Manchester Airport Travel on 0844 887 0812 to book a place. All travel is ABTA and ATOL bonded for peace of mind.

Attending this year’s MIPIM will be tough for many, but exposure at the event is key, says Rory Olcayto 3 February, 2011 | By Rory Olcayto
Nottingham City Council made the tough decision not to go to MIPIM this year in face of the government cuts, but that’s not going to stop Team Nottingham, a private sector led team – including local practice CPMG Architects – representing the city.

It’s still the biggest property fair in the world, and austerity in Cannes, where MIPIM is held every year, is relative. There’s no yacht for Nottingham this year, for example. Indeed the council’s £30,000 MIPIM spend in 2009 was slammed by housing minister Grant Shapps just last week. More importantly, it won’t have the benefit of Invest in Nottingham, a major support organisation, behind it. But, as Team Nottingham member Tim Garratt of property firm Innes England writes on his blog: ‘We have some new blood this year and a great level of enthusiasm to step up to the plate.’ Who’d have thought the Big Society would first manifest itself at MIPIM?
Yet the bottom line remains stark; a much smaller presence, a stand in the main exhibition and two events; a dinner and a drinks reception. Garratt adds: ‘Roll on March – and our opportunity to keep Nottingham on the international stage.’ Simply put, exposure, is the point. At least Nottingham is there.
Globalisation matters to the whole profession. London’s small practices can testify to that most clearly, but most British city firms can speak of profits wrung from international investment over the past 10 years.
But you’ve got to show off. This year Edinburgh is the only Scottish city at MIPIM, and this simple fact may reveal some wider truths that address both a slowdown in inward investment and Scotland’s dismal track record in exporting architecture, as highlighted by Malcolm Fraser (AJ 13.01.11). Last year Edinburgh debuted at number 27 (out of 36) in Cushman & Wakefield European Cities Monitor, which ranks the best business cities (London was top, Athens bottom).
Edinburgh is on a roll – it has an ebullient parliament, a recuperating financial industry, a few too many tourists and a growing rep as an ‘event city’. That’s why it’s at MIPIM. Glasgow, placed 29th in 2010, was, in 1990, the 10th best city in Europe to do business in. That was the year it was ‘City of Culture’, and, you could argue, its failure to build on that brand is reflected in its tumble down the charts.
If you Google ‘Glasgow MIPIM’ nothing coherent comes back. If you do the same for Manchester, you’ll get ‘Team Manchester out in force for MIPIM 2011’ and links to www.manchesteratmipim.com. Partners include Ian Simpson Architects, MBLA and Stephenson Bell.
Manchester comes 12th in the 2010 European City monitor, the next-placed British city after London, and up one from 13 in 2009. Given the effort Manchester puts into selling itself each year, this seems about right. Ignore the cynics: MIPIM does matter – more so if you’re there as part of a team, whether council-backed or private led. At least you don’t need a yacht this year.

Manchester at MIPIM speaker line-up unveiled
9 Feb 2011, 18:06
The regeneration surrounding Ask Developments' First Street and the scientific credentials of the Oxford Road 'Corridor' will be the focus of stand events at MIPIM in Cannes next month.
There will also be presentations on the city's cultural, innovation and leadership offering on the stand event line-up. The property convention takes place from 8 to 13 March.
Among the speakers on the Manchester stand will be Robin Phillips, industry sector finance director at Siemens, Ken Knott, chief executive of Ask Developments and Sarah Whitney, executive director of real estate finance at CB Richard Ellis.
Andrew Stokes, chief executive of Marketing Manchester, the agency responsible for co-ordinating the city's presence at MIPIM, said: "The stand events are a crucial element of the activity undertaken by the Manchester at MIPIM Partnership during MIPIM week.
"They attract a significant number of delegates to the stand and provide an opportunity to showcase the latest developments taking place in the city to the MIPIM audience."
Last year the stand events were attended by more than 600 people and were later viewed on YouTube over 8,000 times.
For the first time this year, the stand events will be live streamed on the internet to allow members of the business community not in attendance at MIPIM the opportunity to watch the presentations and submit questions via Twitter.
The stand events will be live streamed on www.livestream.com/manchesteratmipim and will also be available to watch on the homepage of the Manchester at MIPIM Partnership website: www.manchesteratmipim.com

Next week. Fingers crossed for something juicy, that acyually get's built. A few new flythroughs would be nice as well.

Simon Bedford, head of Drivers Jonas Deloitte in Manchester, comments on the city's presence at MIPIM:

After a somewhat subdued affair last year – though undoubtedly less gloomy than in 2009 – I expect MIPIM to be more lively next week, and as ever, Manchester will be among the main attractions.

The city had a good 2010. The market held firm while Grade A rents fell across the board in other UK cities – bar London where things are on the rise. Meanwhile, lettings were up to a very healthy 1.32 million sq ft, nearing pre-recession heights.

This has created fertile ground for developers with sites to bring forward and already many are dusting off their plans for 2011/12.

At the same time a number of other important schemes continue to make headway, such as MMU’s Birley Fields Campus and the redevelopment of the Royal Eye Hospital, which will no doubt add to the justified sense of confidence in the city.

And what’s good for Manchester is good for the wider North West region.

So there is, quite rightly, a buzz about Manchester’s presence at MIPIM this year. I will be out there with Sean Beech, Deloitte’s Liverpool office senior partner and real estate tax specialist, and we are both optimistic that there is the scent of opportunity in the air. I have no doubt that MIPIM will live up to the hype.

Record numbers to back north west at MIPIM property fair

Jill Burdett

March 07, 2011

A record number of private companies will support Manchester’s attempts to strengthen its place on the global stage when the city showcases developments at the MIPIM property fair in the south of France this week.

A total of 49 firms will represent the city in Cannes, including developers and other property professionals, architects and lawyers, alongside council bigwigs and representatives of organisations including inward investment agency MIDAS. Only chief executive Sir Howard Bernstein and one other officer are being sent by the city council itself.

Chris Oglesby, chief executive of commercial property giant Bruntwood, said: "MIPIM brings together the key decision makers from the industry and provides an unrivalled opportunity to develop the relationships that are crucial to securing future business for the city."

Argent, The Co-operative Estates, Manchester Airport Developments, MediaCo and MIDAS are the key sponsors of Manchester at MIPIM Partnership and representatives from Arup, BDP, Bluemantle, Harrow Estates, Harvest Housing, Ian Simpson Architects, MBLA Architects & Urbanists and Stephenson Bell will also be present at the event, which starts tomorrow for four days.

The city needs to show it is still very much open for business and is ambitious for continued growth despite drastic cuts in public funding.

In a key MIPIM event, Manchester will line up alongside Amsterdam, Barcelona and Hamburg to discuss how Europe can continue to compete against the new powerhouses of China and India.

Mancunian Jim O’Neill, chairman of asset management at investment bank Goldman Sachs, will speak at the event and today he speculated that Manchester would have to be more creative when it comes to funding in the future.

He said: "There are some interesting ideas floating around and, if anywhere can make them happen, it will be Manchester.

"With the current leadership team, there is longevity and stability, which has managed to persist despite national changes, and that is important for planning and investment.

"Looking at more local financial solutions is consistent with this concept of the Big Society, the idea of giving more autonomy to the regions.

"I think Manchester has the bravery and the ambition to do something radical and I would be very eager to help them to do that."

Manchester will have a high profile presence with a stand at the front of the huge Palais building and a balcony emblazoned with a Manchester banner overlooking the Croisette.

Events are held on the stand twice a day spotlighting different schemes and spelling out Manchester’s strategy for continued growth with Sir Howard speaking every day.

On Tuesday he is expected to talk about the potential of localism and the changes being made by the Coalition under the title a Vision for Leadership.

On Wednesday morning Robin Phillips, finance director with Siemens will be talking about Manchester being a science powerhouse and in the afternoon speakers will look at how the city has redrawn urban regeneration.

Thursday sees Tom Bloxham, chairman of Urban Splash, and Alex Poots, director of Manchester International Festival, come to the stand to talk about the city’s cultural ambition.

The final event on Thursday afternoon will give more detail on the new Urban Quarter that is being planned around First Street. Ken Knott from Ask will explain how the new Library Theatre and Cornerhouse will sit with plans for more offices, retail and a new hotel.

Manchester’s presence at MIPIM is masterminded by a steering group led by Sir Howard that sets the schedule but it is delivered by Marketing Manchester whose team ties up private partners and organises the setting up and running of the stand and the three days of events.

With a budget of around £370,000 and the likelihood of little more coming from the city council, the yacht and swanky dinner have rightly gone but MIPIM is about having discussions you could not or would not have had back home.

» The stand events are at 10.45am and 15.45pm tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday, see them live at manchesteratmipim.com

While Manchester has to follow the route of other local authorities in cutting spending and having extensive redundancies, it is still determined to keep the pace of improvement going. One indicator of this was the strong showing at the MIPIM property show in Cannes where Marketing Manchester, the promotional organisation, had an extensive diary of events and speakers pushing the city. Andrew Stokes of Marketing Manchester said: �The stand events are a crucial element of our activity at MIPIM and attract a significant number of delegates. It is where we showcase the latest developments, such as the regeneration of the First Street and Oxford Road corridor.� The city has the ambition to become the UK�s leading region for innovation and enterprise and be ahead of other cities. This is the centrepiece of a report by Pro-Manchester, a professional network organisation. Its Chief Executive John Ashcroft said the private sector was prepared to fill the gap left by the withdrawal of a major part of the publicly funded support. �We have a lot of members with specialist knowledge and helping new businesses would bring them new clients.� He estimated that business angels in the North West put at least �4 million into new businesses. What will spark considerable interest is that the report indicated that there are 25 mid market private equity houses in Manchester ready to meet demand from start ups. The Innovation and Enterprise report suggests a number of measures such as the Bank of Manchester providing soft loans; a �1.5 million fund for high growth businesses; shared office space and a Centre for Business Angel Research in a university. History shows that Manchester and the North West have been successful in nurturing young companies and industries and that its universities have been at the forefront of helping industry

A couple of interesting stories from today's first dat at MIPIM.

MIPIM 2011: Science key to growth, says Bernstein

MANCHESTER City Council leader Sir Howard Bernstein has said that the cities which continue to grow in the midst of the current funding crisis are those that place "science and innovation at the heart of their agenda".

Speaking at a presentation at the MIPIM property conference in Cannes, Bernstein said that cities also need to develop new investment models to replace the Gap funding from grants that many developments have relied upon in previous years.

Mike Emmerich, chief executive of New Economy Manchester, said that the recent award of a Nobel Prize for Physics for two University of Manchester scientists, Andre Geim and Professor Konstantin Novoselov, for their work in the discovery and development of Graphene was a symbol of Manchester's "global leadership in science and technology".

He argued that the recent cuts provided an opportunity for Manchester to "reposition its offering".

"In a lot of cities they're cutting back on economic development. Our approach is different."

He said that the city can take advantage of opportunities emanating from its universities and to invest in viable projects that will drive innovation and growth forwards.

Sarah Whitney, a director of CBRE, gave an overview of the new Evergreen Fund being managed by the City Council which provides mezzanine funding to help kickstart stalled schemes.

She said that the £30m fund, which has already invested in the Soapworks scheme where Nikal Investments is redeveloping the former Colgate factory at Salford into office space, had been matched with investment from local councils, the Greater Manchester Pension Fund and from Barclays Bank.

She added that it remained in talks with other potential private sector partners, and if a large enough pot is generated it could "make a huge difference in terms of the Manchester economy".

Sir Howard added that if its bid for £85m of funding from the initial Regional Growth Fund round was successful, it would give the council and its partners the additional capacity to take equity stakes alongside the mezzanine funding provided through the Evergreen Fund.

"With that we will be able to significantly increase the financial reach of that fund," he said.

He also urged businesses in Greater Manchester to submit their own bids for project funding as part of the second round of Regional Growth Fund applications, which open on April 12.

"What we need are more projects which are capable of being put forwards quickly, which are going to which will attract the right kind of finance and by doing that not only helping themselves but also helping Manchester and Greater Manchester in driving ourselves forward.
MIPIM 2011: Manchester will speak with one voice, say leaders

A NEW promotional strategy framework is being developed for Manchester which will provide a unified voice for the city within its promotional activities.

The framework, which is currently undergoing consultation, was announced by Marketing Manchester's chief executive Andrew Stokes as part of a shake-up of leadership functions currently being concluded in response to public spending cuts and the winding-up of the regional development agency.

The announcement was made at the first of a series of presentations being given by Manchester and its partners at the annual MIPIM property conference in Cannes this morning.

Introducing a session titled Manchester: A Vision for Leadership, the council's chief executive Sir Howard Bernstein said: "We still have enormous ambitions for Manchester and there's absolutely no shortage of our commitment to bring forward innovative strategies to move the city forwards."

MIDAS chief executive Angie Robinson spelled out the city-region's importance to the UK economy, stating that it is responsible for 5% of the UK's GDP and for 50% of the North West region's output of around £120bn - the 12th-largest of any European region.

Stokes said that the city's leaders had "long ago started a collective vision for leadership" which will culminate in the appointment of the new Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) board.

Stokes also said that more than 90 applications had been submitted for the nine board positions - four of which will go to members of the AGMA family and the remaining five will be taken up by representatives from the private sector. Interviews for board members are still taking place and a decision on appointments is expected later this month.

Public sector funding cuts have led to a restructuring of the so-called "Manchester family" of quangos, with organisation such as Manchester: Knowledge Capital being merged with New Economy Manchester while regeneration body New East Manchester was subsumed into Manchester City Council's operations.

Moving forwards, Robinson said that three key organisations will be responsible for delivering different aspects of economic development functions.

New Economy Manchester will handle research, strategy and evaluation briefs while MIDAS will oversee the business growth, trade and inward investment role. Marketing Manchester will be responsible for an over-arching strategy for marketing, communications and tourism.

Robinson said that although the government had decided to centralise the inward investment function for the UK as a whole, it would continue to lobby to sub-contract responsibility for promoting the North West region.

"We believe it would be better delivered at a local level."

She added that Manchester's city-region needed to ensure it would benefit from the legacy left behind by the North West Regional Development Agency and its position as "the principal attack brand for the region".

The rumour mill in overdrive

With a lack of any 'new' news, speculation is rife on things that might be happening soon but perhaps not soon enough for MIPIM. Here's some of my favourite rumours of the last day and a half...

There's a big scheme agreed near the City of Manchester Stadium, due to be signed off very shortly, although the club's Arabian owners aren't keen on publicity so would prefer it to be low-key. I can personally guarantee them there's no chance of that happening.

A big pre-let office scheme will go ahead in Manchester city centre, and soon.

KPMG has decided where it's moving to, with agents on five separate buildings claiming it is their building. They're all fibbing. The firm is on the lookout for 50,000 sg ft however.

Airport City will be signed off soon with a chunky pre-let to get things going.

Tantalising stuff eh?

So was that it? This is after all the last day. I remember last year there was a lot of talk about MIPIM but this year looks to have been either highly predictable, or the good stuff didn't turn up. There was nothing really presented that we didn't already know. Then again, was last year full of false promises to pad out what was a quiet year?

Manchester Gears Up For MIPIM

Cannes property fest happens in March

Written by Simon Binns.

MANCHESTER'S property sector is preparing itself for a week in Cannes as the annual MIPIM exhibition draws near.

But what is the city showcasing to the rest of the world?

According to Marketing Manchester, future developments at Manchester Medi Park Airport City, Argent’s redevelopment of Elisabeth House on St Peter’s Square and Siemens’ sustainable technology park, are some of the topics to be highlighted in the South of France between March 6-9.

Keynote speakers for the stand events include Juergen Maier, managing director of Siemens; Charlie Cornish, chief executive of Manchester Airport; David Partridge, chief executive of Argent; Chris Oglesby, chief executive of Bruntwood; David Pringle director of NOMA at the Co-operative Group, and Ian Simpson of Ian Simpson Architects.

Forty-five organisations have signed up to join the Manchester contingent at MIPIM 2012. Its main sponsors include Argent Estates, MAG Developments, MIDAS and NOMA.

Although the property sector is still engaging recovery mode, MIPIM is still a decent gig for Manchester. The city council get the private sector to pay for the cost of attending and even in a quiet period, the Manchester stand at the Palais De Congres is worth keeping - it has a balcony right out front, proudly bearing the city's name to all those passing down Le Croisette, and is the first stand you see when you go up the escalator to the first floor of the exhibition.

Give that prime spot up and they'd never get it back. And as any property professional will tell you in a recession, it's all about investing in prime locations.

Twelve organisations are joining the Manchester contingent at MIPIM for the first time in 2012. These include Barton Willmore, Gateley and Stride Treglown.

Andrew Stokes, chief executive of Marketing Manchester, said: “Manchester’s stand events are an essential part of the MIPIM property conference – they provide an opportunity to demonstrate the strength of the city’s partnership and to raise those all important questions about the potential growth of the city; amongst a significant crowd from the international property and business community.”

The Manchester stand sessions take place at 10.45 and 15.45 each day (09.45 and 14.45 GMT).

As per last year, Manchester stand sessions will be streamed live from www.livestream.com/manchesteratmipim and also available to watch on the homepage of www.manchesteratmipim.com

Other partners for Manchester at MIPIM 2012 include: Manchester City Council, AECOM, Arup, BDP, Bluemantle Ltd, Bruntwood, Drivers Jonas Deloitte, GVA, Harvest Housing Group, Ian Simpson Architects, Laing O'Rourke, MBLA Architects & Urbanists, MediaCo, Siemens PLC

Associate members include: 5plus Architects Ltd, AFL Architects, Addleshaw, Goddard LLP, Allied London, Ask Property Developments Ltd, Barton Willmore, Bolton Council, The Carlyle Group, Cobbetts LLP, Gateley LLP, Habitat Contracts, Harworth Estates, Himor Group Ltd, Indigo Planning, Leach Rhodes Walker Architects, McGrigors LLP, Manchester Medi Park Airport City, Nikal Ltd, Overbury PLC, Planit-IE Ltd, Savills, Shepherd Construction, Squire Sanders, Stride Treglown, Town Centre Securities, Urban Splash and Willmott Dixon.
