ICEF Podcast: Four perspectives on agent aggregators

In this episode, ICEF’s Craig Riggs and Martijn van de Veen discuss the latest developments in our sector, with a focus on how rising rents are placing additional pressure on international students' search for affordable housing this year.

The episode features a special discussion on agent aggregators recorded live at ICEF San Diego. Martijn was joined there by panelists Ben Waxman from the industry consultancy Intead; Tony Lee, Chief Visionary Officer for ICEF; Eddie West, assistant dean for international at San Diego State University; and Sadiq Basha, the CEO of Edvoy.

The episode concludes with a closer look at another key growth market in international education: Saudi Arabia.
