David Eaves Speaking Topics

Real Estate in a World of Open Innovation

In this talk, open innovation expert David Eaves looks at how the world of real estate is changing to adapt to emerging technologies, social media and big data. The real estate industry is unique in its institutions and governing principles, and new disruptive tools and technologies are beginning to change the way people do business. How will these shifts and technologies change the relationships between real estate boards, brokers, agents and buyers? What trends will emerge within the industry in the next decade? And how can a massive restructuring of the real estate industry lead to happier home buyers and more stable markets? Eaves gives audiences a top-down view of the real estate industry, outlining the issues it faces today—and what it will look like in the future.

Collaborating in a Networked World

David Eaves is more than just an expert on public policy—he is also a trained and experienced negotiator. In our new information economy, information that was previously restricted is quickly becoming public. Now that information is open, the need to have clear communications within organizations is incredibly important. Eaves uses his in-depth knowledge of negotiations and organizational structure to help tackle your organizations communications problems head on. Bringing clear, concise strategies and real-life examples to each talk, Eaves talks with unparalleled passion and pinpoint wit.

Open Government

Open technologies and organizations, which stress transparent information and multi-channel cooperation, have changed the way we live. Wikipedia has revolutionized free and public information and Mozilla has opened the internet browser market to true competition. Policy expert David Eaves asks—if this approach has proven to be so successful, how come government still operates in a world full of red tape and closed channels? In this mind-opening talk, Eaves brings a new perspective to what the government of the future should look like—and why we need to start these changes now.
