  • Where are the meetings? All meetings are held in a dedicated Hosted Program area and each meeting is assigned a table number.
  • How do I know where to go? Check the CREtech New York mobile app or your calendar invites for the assigned table number for each meeting, and at the start of each scheduled meeting proceed directly to the assigned table.
  • When should I arrive? You should arrive at the Hosted Program area a few minutes before your first scheduled meeting. There is no check-in required. If you have any questions, there will be a Q&A desk.
  • What happens if the person I’m meeting doesn’t show up? Give them 5 minutes and if they’ve still not joined, click the “Mark as No Show” button in the CREtech New York mobile app.
  • What else should I do?
    • Do join each meeting on time and don’t exceed the allotted 15 minutes for each scheduled meeting. 
    • Do check the table number for each scheduled meeting--each of your meetings will be at a different table. There is a 2-minute transition time between each meeting. 
    • Do download the CREtech New York mobile app ahead of your meetings (if you haven’t already). You can take notes and request follow-ups in the app.

Organization Admins: Pro Tips

If you’re an Org Admin, here’s some some more helpful info:

  • Completing Org Admin tasks: To help complete Hosted Program action items for Hosted Real Estate Owners & Operators from your organization, you’ll need to use your desktop (the mobile app does not support Org Admin activities). If you’re a Hosted Real Estate Owner & Operator just completing action items for yourself, you can use the mobile app. 
  • ‘Manage Participants & Roles’ screen: From this screen you can:
    • Select who you want to manage: Go to ‘Manage Participants & Roles’ and select the Hosted Real Estate Owners & Operators from your organization that you want to ‘Manage As Org Admin’. Voilà–you can help complete action items for them. 
    • Add or Assign Org Admins: Need some Org Admin backup? Click ‘Add New Org Admin’ to add unregistered individuals as Org Admins, or click ‘Assign’ to assign registered attendees as Org Admins. 
  • Opt Into Hosted Meeting Requests and Request Meetings stage:
    • Manage [Organization]’s Participants’ Requests & Opt-ins’ screen: If you want to help opt in to Hosted Meeting requests or request meetings for some or all of the Hosted Real Estate Owners & Operators you’re managing, check the boxes next to their names. 
    • Collaboration & Efficiency tools: Just like regular program participants, Org Admins can use the full range of collaboration and time-saving features:
      • Bookmarks: If you’re not sure you want to request to meet someone (for the Hosted Real Estate Owners & Operators you’re requesting meetings for, or yourself if you’re a Hosted Real Estate Owner & Operator), simply Bookmark them and decide later (they’ll be under ‘Bookmarks’). 
      • Saved Lists: Click 'Save List' to name and save a specific search/filter result so you can come back to it later (it’ll be under 'My Lists').
    • Meeting Requests Progress: Click the tooltip at the top of the screen to track the progress of Hosted Real Estate Owners & Operators you’re helping manage against their recommended minimum number of opt-ins to Hosted Meeting requests and their own meeting requests. 
  • Accept Meetings onwards: From the Accept Your Meetings stage onwards, you may view the ongoing progress and status of the Hosted Real Estate Owners & Operators you want to manage, including:
    • View if they have accepted their meetings
    • View their scheduled meetings
    • View if they have provided feedback
