Event Description

Our quarterly London meeting of the AEC Network

We have two presenters:

Gordon Ludlow - Sustainability from an FM Perspective

Gordon Ludlow is the owner of Ludlow FM Consulting, a non-exec Director of British Institute of Facilities Management and Chair of BIFM’s Sustainability Group. He has the benefit of over 20 years’ senior management experience within industry, higher education and the charity sectors. His experience includes being a sea-going Chief Engineer for P&O, Estates Director for a college of London University and Head of Facilities Management for Oxfam.

and the key points I will be covering will be:

• What sustainability means to Facilities Managers
• What are the trends in Facilities Management
• What tools are available.

David Shaprio - Kings Cross Developments

David Shapiro has been at Fresson & Tee Chartered Surveyors, a multi disciplinary practice of chartered surveyors and property consultants since 1997 as a partner and now director. Fresson & Tee Chartered Surveyors’ three main areas of expertise include commercial property, building and construction services and property management with clients including property companies, pension funds, commercial organisations, charities, governmental organisations and many private individuals. David runs the commercial property department which specialises in commercial estate agency, rent reviews and lease renewals, valuations and property consultancy advice.

David tends to be geographically focused towards King's Cross in central London where he has specialised in the local market since 2001 however doesn’t work exclusively in this area and is currently involved in several projects in other parts of central London.

David was also a founding member and chairman of King's Cross Business Forum. Subsequently, he has extensive links with the local but growing business community along with some of the key organisations currently involved with its regeneration.

Afraid it looks like we may not be able to stream this event due to wi-fi problems. There will, no doubt, be plenty of twittering going on and we have the hashtag #AECNetwork if anyone would like to follow what is happening.

As I unfortunately had no time-space left to attend this time,
I hope we will see web streaming of the lectures popping up ! ? :)

Hi Bernie!
Re Thames Gateway you might talk to Val Rozga at Constructing Excellence in Essex about your plans she'll have some contacts http://www.ceeclub.org.uk/index.html

No Such thing as a free Lunch...
Lots of messages posted on twitter about lunch today, I would love you all to think I am shouting lunch but it is in fact Ablestoke & Quin-essence who are digging deep.
Places are filling fast! I know some of you are coming and have not registered yet so please do (and leave a post please!)
Lunch is on a first booked first served basis so if you are in you are in!
It would be brilliant to get the conversation going here so please post questions or comments for the speakers, please tweet (or whatever your weapon of choice).
Paul is trying to call in a few favours to get us hooked up for Wifi as the venue does not have it. If we do get conected please feel free to come armed with your I.T. so we can share the day with others in distant parts.
Talking of distant parts I have been speaking to people in the 2012 and Thames Gateway area with a view to running a meeting in that area next year if there was enough interest.
If you are from that area please come to this one to get a feel of what is possible.
Thanks for reading
