| Digital Twin of Dan Smigrod | Monday, 19 August 2024 Transcript Hi, I'm the digital twin of Dan Smigrod, the Founder of the We Get Around Network Forum. I have the privilege of delivering a message that's close to Dan's heart on a very special occasion. It's hard to believe that it's been 10 years since the first post was made in the We Get Around Network Forum. On August 19, 2014, we began this journey with a simple idea: to create a space where we could all share knowledge, help each other grow, and shape the future of real estate together. Today, with 101,000 posts among 18,000 topics, it's clear that the WGAN community has not only fulfilled that vision but has surpassed every expectation. To our 15,000 members and guests who visit the WGAN Forum each month: You are the heart of this community. Your contributions, your willingness to help one another, and your shared passion have built the world's largest knowledge base of its kind. It's your giving and getting of help that have made the WGAN Forum the best PropTech community for Matterport and related digital twin creators and providers. To our marketing partners: Your support has been instrumental in allowing this platform to remain free for nearly everyone. By embracing our community, you've enabled us to continue growing, innovating, and making a real impact. We're incredibly grateful for your ongoing partnership. As we look to the future, I want to acknowledge the role of AI in our continued evolution. We see the potential of AI to transform how we create, share, and experience digital twins. The WGAN community will continue to explore and push the boundaries of what's possible. In closing, I want to say this: you matter. These two words have guided our community from the very beginning, and they will continue to do so as we move forward. And, while it is our 10th birthday, We Get Around Network Forum Members get the gifts. To receive an all access pass to the WGAN-TV Training Academy for 12 months, go to: www.WGAN.info/birthday by December 31, 2024. Use coupon code: birthday. No credit card necessary. Not yet a WGAN Forum member? Go to: www.JoinWGAN.com It's free to join. And, you will receive 50+ free membership benefits simply for joining. Thank you! Merci. Gracias. ありがとう. Дякую. Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey. Here's to the next 10 years of community, innovation and collaboration. |

| Dan, I said it before and I’ll say it again… You are the “man on the mountain”… like the very knowledgeable man who sits crosslegged at the peak of a high mountain, all of us have climbed its peak and found you and your site. When I first bought my camera equipment back in 2016, there was no information anywhere, including Matterport site, that had any information on getting started. You have introduced me to some of the most incredible people in the industry, you have referred me Business, You have picked up every call I ever made you, you are the man! Keep up the great work and continue being, “the man on the mountain “ Howard Witz PRES, 3DVuz Inc. NYC Matterport Provider |

| Congratulations Dan, as we go way back from the beginning WGAN. I remember shortly after purchasing my first camera SR#A00013 which I had to have my son ship to me as MP was not exporting cameras outside of North America at the time. I came across this site where a few VT enthusiast were exchanging ideas and feedback on their new MP camera. Today is no differences as WGA is and always will be the essential source for everything which has to do with capturing technology. The depth of knowledge which exist among it's members is second to none. Even though I have never personally met any of WGAN members they still feel like old friends as through the years we have all helped each other along our journey into this exciting technology. Dan I salute you in having the vision and foresight in publishing the most essential site in our industry and I wish you many successful years to come with WGAN. |

| @GarySnyder You're the best. And, yes, you are among the earliest We Get Around Network Members. Fond memories of all your innovations in the space and your willingness to share freely in the WGAN Forum and Zoom visits. Yes. While the WGAN Forum started out about giving/getting help and being a source of news about our space, it has evolved into a community. With your depth of knowledge, years of experience and willingness to help, it's so nice that you are a member of the We Get Around Network community. And, I look forward to a future trip to the UK to visit in person, if you don't make it to Atlanta before (TBD) then. [cheers] Dan |
