Saul Klein Joins Speaker Panels at INMAN News’ Data Summit and R.E. Connect

San Diego, – July 20, 2011 – Point2 (www.Point2.com) today announced that its senior vice president, Saul Klein, will participate on two discussion panels on data syndication at the upcoming INMAN News Real Estate Connect and Data Summit conferences that will take place during the week of July 25, 2011 in San Francisco, CA.

The rapid rise of property data syndication has enabled real estate MLSs (Multiple Listing Service) and Associations to automate online listing publishing for members, in the process making significant advances towards maintaining information integrity and consistency on consumer websites, while maximizing member exposure to online buyers. With organized real estate gaining back control over listing data online, the panels will explore key opportunities the trend puts before the industry today, at two separate sessions.
