Dan Innes on the business of real estate: speaking and moderating
From MIPIM and MAPIC in Cannes to RLI Connect Global in Newcastle, Dan Innes brings international experience and a clear commercial perspective to the discussions shaping the built environment.
The best industry discussions make an audience think more clearly. They test assumptions, connect different perspectives and bring the decisions facing a sector into sharper focus. Dan Innes, Founder and Managing Director of Innesco, brings that purpose to his work as a conference speaker, panel moderator and discussion chair.
Recent engagements include moderating the logistics discussions at MIPIM in 2025 and 2026 - covering sustainable urban logistics, supply chains, energy availability and the practical requirements of future-ready assets - and the MAPIC session 'Winning expansion strategies: leading brands breaking new ground' with Pandora and Fressnapf. In September, he delivered the opening remarks and moderated the opening panel at RLI Connect Global in Newcastle, examining international markets, regional investment and the factors that build conviction in retail and destination real estate.
His perspective is grounded in advisory work with investors, developers, owners and occupiers across the UK, Europe and the Middle East, and informed by more than 25 years across real estate, investment communications, retail and placemaking. That experience shapes both the questions he asks and the connections he draws between capital, reputation, development and demand.
Dan is available for conference speaking, panel participation and moderation, executive interviews, leadership roundtables and guest lectures. Full details of subjects, formats and recent platforms are on our Speaking & Moderating service page.
