RealFoundations wishes you a Happy Thanksgiving!

Last week, Caliber’s Nicole Lombardo attended CREtech New York 2024, where leaders explored AI’s potential to transform real estate, along with the data challenges the industry must tackle. Here are our takeaways.👇 💡 Data is the Foundation for AI Success: Real estate has traditionally lagged in adopting new technologies, and AI is no exception. While companies in the sector hold vast amounts of untapped data, decades of unorganized and siloed information pose major challenges to integrating AI effectively. As RealFoundations CEO Phillip McCorkle emphasized in “Cut to the Chase: How the Digital Workplace Provides the Most Immediate Opportunity for Generative AI,” success depends on the three Ds: Data, Documents and Dialogue. Without digitization in these areas, organizations risk falling behind in the AI race. 🤝 Collaboration and Consolidation: In his session, TermSheet CEO Roger Smith reiterated his message from last year: Real estate companies must clean and govern their data before investing in AI. Those that fail to adapt risk missing out on AI's transformative benefits. 🌍 Sustainability Meets Innovation: The panel “Redefining NYC's Landscape” gave an insider view of how ESG goals are reshaping real estate. With new roles in sustainability created in response to demand, panelists discussed their vision for sustainable spaces and urban renewal in New York City, emphasizing the intersection of technology, sustainability and urban design. CRETech 2024 highlighted the urgency for real estate companies to address data infrastructure challenges, embrace AI thoughtfully and align technology with sustainability goals. The message was clear: Whoever wins data will win AI. We’d love to hear your thoughts. #CREtechNewYork2024 #AI #Sustainability #DataGovernance #RealEstateTechnology #CaliberConnect Emily Wright Hrisa Gatzoulis Neal Mohammed Sevinc Yuksel Neil Gupta Ryan Simonetti
