“We are presenting an exciting new format for sharing success,” said Inman News Publisher Brad Inman. “Our vast mix of speakers will get personal with their stories, and explain in a fun and compelling way what it took to actually build something meaningful in the real estate industry — not corporate mumbo-jumbo, but real tales of the ups and downs and art of building a business, a book of business, a team, an app, a startup, and more.”

Connect is a four-day experience aimed at real estate agents, brokers, MLS and association executives, technology companies and title and mortgage companies — the smartest folks on the stage and in the audience.
