Roundtable lunch discussion
ANREV is pleased to invite you to join us for a lunch discussion on 29 May 2023 in Singapore.
In the current market, business as usual is no longer good enough. Real estate managers and investors are seeking to use technology and innovation to maximise the returns from their assets either through cost reduction or through generating new forms of income. At the same time institutional capital is also demanding a much greater focus on ESG to drive value and mitigate risk.
Join Jonathan Hannam, Managing Partner at Asia’s leading real estate technology investor Taronga Ventures, and Su Lin Wee of PGIM Real Estate for a roundtable lunch as we deep dive into the technologies that are driving real and measurable change. The session will be moderated by Nadan Sehic, Counsel at White & Case.
