Topics Sample
Sustainable development
Buildings are known to use and abuse energy and also to generate an important amount of waste. Sustainability is a hot topic, but how about regenerative buildings that give back to nature more than they take? Yes, technology can measure that, architecture can be based on biomimicry and modern materials can help create a more integrative building.
Future of Work
Hub-and-spoke, flexible office and work from anywhere are here to stay, so office spaces must compete to enable people to be as happy, healthy and productive as they can possibly be. This demands for multifunctional, multi-disciplinary, service-oriented and customer obsessed companies. Technology is of course an enabler, but the focus of the next decade will revolve around the human factor.
Community engagement
Tennant engagement and community engagement are no longer “nice to have” features of a building, nowadays these are built in the core fabric of the real estate assets. The competition to create high-value, worry-free living and working experiences for communities is growing and can significantly improve developer/operator ROI by capturing important benefits for the occupier.

Program
Verticals
Any company related to the real estate industry can participate in the accelerator, no matter if they are players in the verticals we presented or other categories like utilities, urban mobility, co-working, digital twin and so on
Smart City
Industrial Retails
Rezidential
Office
01
Office
Future of work has changed the way we work and engage with the office building. What’s the next level: digital twin, community engagement, flexible space, hub and spoke?
02
Retail
From retail on demand to omnichannel, the next level of retail involves both the physical and the virtual store. AI, IoT and VR/AR have already impacted this vertical in a significant way, what would be the next wave?
03
Industrial
Innovation and growth happened exponentially for this vertical, generating challenges from operational to location’s decision. From Geographic Information System Mapping to predictive maintenance to warehouse automation, industrial is ripe for disruption. Where is it heading to?
04
Residential
Our home is no longer just a home, it became office, gym, school and the place we engage with our community. How is technology and digital transformation going to impact the way we develop, sell/rent and inhabit houses?
05
Construction
From budgeting to planning, from energy consumption to waste management, the construction field is fast catching up with the technological wave. What would be the must have for any construction site, from the tech perspective?
06
Smart City
The city of tomorrow might be half digital and virtual! We are barely scratching the surface to accessing the Meta Verse and all the opportunities of engagement and cooperation that it brings us. How livable, green and sustainable is going to be our city? What is the role technology will play in enabling that?
07
Blockchain
Real estate hasn’t escaped blockchain disruption. Real estate transactions are often conducted offline involving face-to-face engagements with various entities. Blockchain, however, opened up ways to change this. The introduction of smart contracts in blockchain platforms now allows assets like real estate to be tokenized. Is this a hype, or is it here to stay?
