Moderator Idriss Goossens
As more technology companies such as Google and Amazon try to integrate parts of the construction and Real Estate value-chain, and as developers are increasingly integrate technology in their buildings (buildings become like smartphones: hardware, an operating system and software), a fundamental question arises: what will be the relation between the Real Estate developers and the Technology Companies? Will their skill sets overlap, will they become direct competitors in developing and operating the cities of tomorrow? Or can they partner up?
The speakers of this conference are Kevin Cardona (Chief Innovation Officer BNP Paribas Real Estate), Gregory Pitl (Innovation Director Patrizia), Benjamin Melcher (Head of Development Siemens Stadt)
