#RECALL / #RE2020: If you're a big thinker -- real estate consumer advocate or #RETech innovator, invite you to the last live session of MIT's uLab today. If you're not familiar with Theory U, you can learn more about that theory of change & mission in this short, but highly inspirational video:
uLab is an enormously popular MOOC -- Massive Open Online Course -- that's attracted over 100,000 students spanning more than 100 countries.

The livestream is FREE and starts at 10am today (available online afterwards for those with a scheduling conflict):
If you'd like to follow-up, will gladly use the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party 12/16/21, to host a meeting -- online, virtual or hybrid -- to compare thoughts on the Best of / Worst of 2021 from the real estate consumer's perspective, and dream about solutions to current problems moving into the future!
