CONFERENCE OVERVIEW:
This may be the most important panel you hear in the next 5 years! The digital revolution can be compared to the industrial revolution in the way it is now impacting how we live and work. The rate of change is so fast even the experts have a hard time keeping up. The way space is used, sized, configured and retrofitted is changing dramatically for all real estate food groups. Traditional employee work location is shifting from the office to home or even sitting in the park with a PDA. Space needs, building configurations and tenant improvements are changing dramatically. Unless you understand what is coming, your investments and loans may lose substantial value.
For example, the traditional massive libraries once common to law firms are being replaced with on-line equivalents. Storage space needs are disappearing, and private office space is being reduced or even eliminated. Which buildings will succeed and why? What will tenant improvement investments look like with the new space configurations and digital requirements? How will the digital revolution affect lease demands in the near future?
Which major tenants will survive the revolution, how will retail be reconfigured, why do major law firms need so much less space, why are private offices disappearing from major companies, and how is video conferencing changing travel and demand for hotels? What digital connections and amenities are going to be absolute requirements for apartments and condos to attract younger tenants? Which companies will pioneer anticipated changes and emerge as leaders of industry? Will book stores and movie theaters exist in ten years? How will major brands live or die?
If you're an owner, lender, leasing or property broker, space planner, or architect, you can't afford to miss this expert panel of tech gurus and top level facilities experts. It will totally change everything you think you know about what real estate will look like in 10 years and who your major tenants may be.
