Words from The Audience:

“I was fascinated with your (excellent) presentation–one of the few I actually got to—especially since I have spent a chunk of my career working with retailers (and other occupiers) unwinding their lease obligations. Battling and winning, as the business person. Been doing some expert witness work in that area too–so please let you know if you want to schedule a follow-up call (or coffee in City)  to explore how we can maybe work together.”
