Purpose

The purpose of this Call for Cases is to identify potential General Session and Workshop case study presentations and Speakers for the CoreNet Global Symposium in Auckland, New Zealand, on 28 April, 2009.

We are seeking case studies that demonstrate new approaches to value creation and operational excellence in the networked world, while reaching beyond the traditional boundaries of real estate. Further, we are encouraging case studies from the Occupier viewpoint that also feature one or more network partner perspectives – Service Provider, Economic Developer, Consultant, Developer, Landlord, as well as Human Resources, Information Technology, and risk management.

Contact Us

Please contact Peter Chenoweth on +61 3 9646 3033 or at pchenoweth@corenetglobal.org with any ideas or questions you may have.

About Speaking at CoreNet Global Summits and Symposiums

Sharing your professional experience at a CoreNet Global Summit or Symposium provides quality exposure for you and your company while creating an unprecedented learning opportunity for Symposium delegates. As you consider making a case study submission, please be aware that the following matters apply should your submission be accepted:

1. You and your case study may be assigned to a Panel format session, or to a session with multiple cases. Please do not presume that you will be allotted all of the session time if your case is accepted.
2. CoreNet does not permit Speakers to make representations on behalf of a previous employer unless that employer's explicit permission has been given.
3. You will be asked to submit within two weeks of advice of acceptance of your submission both a photo & a CV for each Speaker who will participate in that session, for use in the printed Registration Brochure, printed Final Programme, & on the Symposium Website. If these items are not supplied within the period requested, the publications may be printed without your content.
   
   - The Photo file should be colour, EPS, JPEG or TIF, and 50 Kb – 1 Mb in size. Photo’s less than 50 Kb may reproduce poorly when printed.
   
4. A Moderator will be appointed for your session, and will work closely with you both pre-Symposium and on-site.
5. You will be asked to use a CoreNet Global Symposium PowerPoint template for your presentation slides. The template includes a prominent space for your company logo.
6. You will be asked to participate in a one-hour “Content Review” session-planning conference call.
   
   - The Moderator together with any other Speaker in your session will also be expected to participate.
   
   - The call focuses upon the session’s “Key Learning Points”, “Content Cohesion”, “Speaker & Moderator Rapport”, “Currency of the session Synopsis”, and any special Audio-Visual requirements that you may have.
   
   - Identifying a mutually convenient call time for all participants can be difficult, so we ask that you indicate your availability for any suggested call time quickly.
   
   
7. You will be asked to submit your final, completed presentation at least one week prior to the Symposium, to enable timely preparation of the master Audio-Visual presentation file
8. Material presented at any CoreNet Global Symposium becomes the property of CoreNet Global.
9. Your session may be recorded on site during the Symposium for subsequent distribution on CD ROM or DVD, or for re-presentation at another CoreNet Global Summit or Chapter Forum, to enhance the learning of CoreNet Global Members.
10. CoreNet Global does not generally pay stipends to Speakers.
11. In order to speak, you must register as a Summit delegate and pay the appropriate registration fee, subject to your Membership status. A concessional rate will be offered in grateful recognition of your contribution.
12. The Sponsorship of a Symposium session does not create any entitlement for the Sponsor to appoint a Speaker or Moderator to that or any other Symposium session.
13. Service Providers who participate in a session are not permitted to present a "sales pitch", both in their own and the Delegates' interest.

Deadline for Submission

Deadline for submission is 4.00 p.m. Friday 19 December, 2008. Acceptance of late entries will be based on need. The listed topics are related to the Summit learning theme – please use them as thought-starters for your case submissions. Each topic includes a hotlink to the application form.

Evaluation and Selection

CoreNet Global will review nominations and you will be notified of the status of your submission, via e-mail, no later than late January 2009. You may receive a phone call asking for clarification or additional information regarding your submission. These inquiries assist us in selecting as many quality submissions as possible. Please understand that these inquires do not indicate acceptance of your case – you will receive a specific notification via email regarding the status of your case study and its inclusion in the CoreNet Global Auckland Symposium.

1. Submissions will be evaluated based on the following criteria:
2. Alignment with the overall theme and topics of the Summit
3. Creativity, innovation or best practice of the case study
4. Models or tools that might be useful for other corporate real estate professionals
5. How the case study created value for the corporation or organization
6. Lessons learned or guidelines for others
7. Quality, clarity and completeness of the submission

We regret that we cannot include all submissions in our Symposium programme.
