PROPTECH&AI Series: AI•Innovation•Founders
Join us on November 26 at MaRS Discovery District for a curated networking evening that brings together property owners, landlords, commercial service providers, startup founders, investors, operators, innovators, AI developers, founders and technology leaders.
As AI is changing the way businesses operate, how customers make decisions and what tenants expect from property owners and service providers. Across industries, familiar business models are being challenged, and new opportunities are emerging.
We invite you to meet industry leaders and invited experts. Explore practical case studies, exchange ideas and connect with potential clients, partners, investors and technology innovators.
Expect practical case studies, different perspectives and an open Q&A. Exchange ideas with people who understand the industry — and those building what comes next.
