NEXT GENERATION OF EVENTS
We are pleased to announce that we will be doing this event, in conjunction with, REBNY, one of the most prestigious real estate organizations in the country. There will be a show within a show, with the intention of showcasing new proptech firms that have been chosen by the Proptech Challenge to present.
WHY ATTEND?
In the spirit of the way we try to innovate, we will be using a new, totally different platform based on gaming technology that will change the entire virtual experience. On this new platform, you will have the closest experience to a live trade show, possible, where you can see friends, clients, or prospects and interact with them, on the spot. This is unique among virtual platforms and adds an entirely new dimension to trade shows. We expect this to become the future of virtual events. And better yet, it’s free for attendees. So the real question is, why not?

The spread of COVID-19, subsequent economic downturn and regulatory responses have all significantly impacted rental real estate.

Building owners and operators reacted quickly, shifting leasing, maintenance, remote working strategies and more to adapt to the initial shock. But which adaptations will stick? Join us for a presentation on what's here to stay in the industry and strategies resilient organizations are taking to emerge from this period in a position of strength. At the end of this session, participants will:
· Understand the impact of remote work, not only on your operations, but its effect on communities, amenities, renovations, and construction
