He was joined by Ina Plunien (Cedar Capital Partners), Richard Luffingham (Valouran), and Charlie Walsh (Maybourne), with the session moderated by Riyan Itani, (Global Branded Residences).
The summit took place at the NoMad Hotel. The gathering brought together the industry's movers and shakers - developers, investors, and branded residence specialists.
