What does AI mean in practice for the built environment? And what impact does it have on the decisions that investors, occupiers and developers are making today?
AI is moving at high speed from speculation to measurable impact. In the built environment, this impact is also becoming increasingly visible: in location choices, infrastructure, real estate demand and asset performance. Cushman & Wakefield is tracking these developments worldwide and translating data, market insights and future scenarios into a clear view of what AI means for real estate and the decisions of tomorrow.
During this session, Richard Pickering, Director of Strategic Foresight & Intelligence at Cushman & Wakefield, will share our view on the influence of AI on logistics real estate, offices, retail and the housing market. Where does the momentum build now? Where do risks increase? How does AI’s impact differ by sector?
Visit our stand for practical insights into a development that will structurally shape the market.
