LISTEN, WATCH AND SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCASTS

IT’S NO SECRET THAT THE COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE (CRE)
INDUSTRY HAS A WAYS TO GO IN TERMS OF HOW IT OPERATES.

We’re talking about slow, siloed, and change-resistant ways of doing business that have been the norm for decades - well that’s all about to change. We’re in the age of AI, climate change, and the return to work debate. The “old ways of CRE” are being forced to be more innovative, efficient and inclusive, including the news. Whether you’re an industry veteran or new to CRE, this is the only podcast you will need. Tune in to hear two industry veterans deliver critical and up-to-date information in a whole new way, through informative, accessible, and dare we even say, funny conversations with developers, entrepreneurs, owners/occupiers, and other key players. We’re increasing access and understanding to CRE to a broad and diverse audience, representing the occupiers of the built environment as a whole. We’re on a mission to usher in the new era of CRE.
