We have technologies available today that can transform the way we work, live and play. The question is, why aren’t we deploying more of it? We don’t have a technology problem, we have a people problem.
In this presentation, Charles will look at how the real estate industry is adopting technology and the drivers behind it.

In this session we gather Real Estate Leaders from a cross section of real estate sectors to ask them “What does innovation mean to you?”. With such a large and diverse industry, Innovation means many different things, but some themes are central and important to everyone. Sustainability, Data Analytics, Investment and Technology will all come under the microscope as we investigate how innovation is transforming the industry.
Linda J. Isaacson is a globally recognised strategic thinker and accelerator of change. As Partner and Head of ESG & Impact for ACRE (A globally focused RE PE firm), she is responsible for ensuring that ongoing investment decisions, operational actions and overall business philosophy reflect its core ESG principles and those of its investors, including environmental justice, economic equality, social initiatives, and transparency. In this session we unpack this and more to see what Australian companies can learn from their global peers.
What are the factors driving deployment and why is now the time for adoption at scale…?
There is huge appetite from across the sector to explore the full potential of technology in real estate – whether to future-proof assets, mitigate risk, build resilience or embrace efficiency. We explore the technologies and innovations that have the most compelling deployment potential across real estate portfolios globally and consider why some tech solutions might see adoption at scale where others might not. We will have a specific look at what are the investments asset owners make in a Net Zero Journey and how to manage them to be more effectively.
In the session we will examine the role landlords, accelerators, government and organisations can play in creating precincts that enable innovation to flourish and develop technologies that enhance our lives and the wellbeing for all.
Currently, one of the most pressing issues in the residential real estate sector is the challenge of housing affordability and the scarcity of available properties, leading to soaring prices and a rental crisis. Moreover, residential agents and brokers continually face the pressure to introduce innovative approaches. The COVID-19 pandemic catalysed significant advancements and the widespread adoption of technology to facilitate sales and leasing processes. Online portals became a crucial tool, enabling virtual property viewings and streamlining transactions. Additionally, emerging banks began offering homeowners more flexible financing options, while tech-forward brokers capitalised on data and online tools to establish a competitive edge and support agents.
In this international Keynote we hear from Jermaine Liao who heads strategic initiatives and innovation for Keppel Land. Jemaine recently moved to Shanghai so in this session he walk talk a little bit about the environment of China and how their technology is leading transformation, but also will talk to the strategy of Keppel Land to transform their brownfield buildings as part of a sustainable urban renewal program to develop smart er cities where they operate.
In this session we look at the innovation driving change across the residential rental and BTR sectors that are a major focus across the Australia real estate landscape today. As we navigate a rental crisis and BTR continues to gain momentum, what technologies are enabling greater efficiencies and outcomes? In particular we examine:
According to recent reports $1.1 Trillion is being invested in Climate-Tech. Fifth Wall is one of the world’s leading PropTech/Climatech VC’s committed to leading & accelerating the way towards net zero. In this candid interview Yvonne will discuss how they’re identifying and investing in the companies that will help decarbonise the real estate sector.
Satoshi Heads APAC for MetaProp – a global leading PropTech VC Firm – where he acts as the key relationship lead and business coordinator for their APAC activities. In this session Satoshi will talk to how Metaprop approaches APAC and the role the region plays within their portfolio of PropTechs. In particular, he will discuss:
It has been a founder’s market for fundraising for the past few years, with capital flowing to proptech and high competition driving valuations ever higher. As markets have turned and proptech has become more established, how should we expect the market to change for founders? In this panel, we’ll talk to leading VCs about the guidance they’re giving their portfolio companies and the conversations happening behind the scenes at partner meetings.
Coming out of a massively disrupted macroeconomic landscape, major questions abound about the value potential of proptech startups. That includes whether tech newbies will continue to be targets for consolidation through mergers and acquisitions or takeover by traditional real estate firms — or just fold under the pressure. In this session we hear leading PropTechs discuss how they are positioned for 2024 and beyond, the hottest sub-segments and what’s needed to survive and thrive.
Sino Group are leading international developers with a portfolio of assets in the hundreds of $Billions. Their focus on Technology and Sustainability have made them one of the largest and most innovative property companies in APAC. With assets in Residential, Commercial, Industrial, Retail and Hospitality, they are a global leader changing the way people live, work and play. In this session their Chief of Innovation will examine how technology is playing a crucial role in the construction of their projects and the lasting impact it will play in futureproofing their business and the lives of those who live, work and shop in their buildings.
There has been a global shift in how we lead and traditional models are being challenged. Our workplaces are dynamic and multigenerational, our clients expectations are high, there is a talent shortage, people are looking for value and purpose driven organisations, we are all dealing with legislative changes and the market has changed.
How do leaders stay relevant, connected, visible, agile and fail forward in an environment that turbulent and transforming.
