#SPACEASASERVICE
THE TRILLION DOLLAR HASHTAG
#SpaceAsAService has two meanings
First, it refers to space that is procured on-demand, whether by the hour, day, week, month or year.
But secondly, it refers to a workplace (however procured) that provides the spaces and services appropriate to the ‘job to be done’ of every individual, as and when they need it.
The Caveat
This does not apply to the entire office market, but it does apply to the better end of it. Any company dependant on attracting, retaining and making productive high skilled employees WILL become #SpaceAsAService minded.
Welcome to my website.
I am a globally recognised speaker, advisor and writer on PropTech and space-as-a-service. A serial entrepreneur, I have founded and exited several PropTech software companies and now consult real estate boards on their transformation, technology and innovation strategies. My blog on this site is said to be influential.
I speak internationally on ‘#SpaceasaService: The Trillion Dollar Hashtag’, #GenerativeAIforRealEstatePeople, Innovation, and the future of Cities, Work and the Workplace.
I read all the things my clients, and audiences should, but mostly they do not have the time. I’m paid to synthesise all of this, add my take on things, and bring people up to speed.
I’ve been fortunate enough to work with exceptional clients, including CBRE Global Investors, EPRA, INREV, CoreNet India, CREDAI (in Tel Aviv), MSCI, MRI, NSI, SEGRO, RICS, Nepi Rockcastle, Fifth Wall Ventures, IREI, Ricoh and the iwfm.
