USER'S GUIDE

How will the virtual summit work?


The event platform we are using is called Hopin (www.hopin.to). Hopin is a virtual venue with multiple interactive areas to help you connect and engage. As an attendee, you’ll be able to move in and out of rooms just like an in-person event and enjoy the content and connections throughout. The Hopin platform includes a main stage area, interactive sessions, live video, and text-based chat functions, an exhibitor tradeshow to discover innovative solutions, as well as connection and networking functions.

Hopin is easy to use and runs straight out of your web browser. While Hopin does work on mobile devices, for the best experience we strongly recommend that you plan to experience the summit using your own personal laptop or desktop computer. Hopin works best on the latest version of Google Chrome and Firefox. For our complete technical specifications and a troubleshooting guide visit here

The Reimagining Real Estate Global Virtual Summit is the largest truly global real estate tech digital summit.  During the entire  time that the event is live, you are able to visit exhibitor booths and use networking features.

The Stage is where you can hear from the most prestigious C-suite landlords, developers, brokerage leaders, and tech wonders ever assembled for a real estate technology conference.

If you are not camera-ready, you can still participate in the session's dedicated chat. 

Expo
