Coronavirus fears prompt leading interiors trade fair to be postponed & a major agency to pull out of MIPIM

Europe's biggest property networking event, MIPIM, has been pushed back from 10th March until the 2nd June.

Knight Frank, Savills, Grosvenor, Landsec, EY and others have all followed Cushman & Wakefield's lead, backing out of next month's MIPIM event over fears of the spread of the Covid-19 virus.

This year's Riviera real estate get-together has been cancelled; it will be replaced with a "two-day Paris-based gathering" in September.
