We fortify European PropTechs, forging tomorrow’s radically changing real estate industry
PROPTECH
The modern property mantra is no longer
‘location, location, location’,
but ‘location, experience, analytics’
The real estate and construction industry are the largest asset classes globally, but at the same time they are amongst the least digitized sectors in the world. They constitute one of the most conservative industries and lag behind other – very strongly linked – industries such as finance and insurance, in terms of speed, cost-efficiency, customer experience and transparency.
PropTech is the digitized and innovation-focused transformation of the ‘built world’ value chain, changing the way we research, design, finance, buy, market, build, rent, sell, manage, operate and experience property.
The entire real estate value chain will be disrupted by emerging technology breakthroughs combined with the extremely high user connectivity thanks to omnipresent mobile devices.
This is accelerated even further by several external factors converging at this point in time. This disruptive transformation is going to have a massive impact on the entire real estate and construction industry, similar to the impact FinTech has had on the traditional finance industry.
