Description

Why MIPIM is So Important for International Relationships, with Brett Million In this episode of the #WorkBold Podcast, Caleb Parker is joined by Brett Million, Head of Strategic Partnerships at NewFlex, the UK’s largest Space-as-a-Service operator that deploys the management agreement model. Brett has deep experience in Space-as-a-Service, having served as COO for Regus and managing their growth across the globe in the early 2000s. He is responsible for having created the NewFlex multi-brand growth strategy. In this episode, the two discuss why partnerships are important, how Brett was recruited by NewFlex’s CEO to lead their growth strategy and some “behind the scenes” chat on how the Bold transaction took place. Brett announces imminent plans for taking the management agreement model to the European continent in partnership with forward thinking landlords, and how MIPIM has been instrumental in making this possible.
