PropTech Denmark’s 5 Commitments
Collaboration & knowledge sharing
Our core pillar is a collaborative mindset. We are committed to actively promote and engage in collaboration and knowledge sharing across the real estate value chain and of the belief, that it is to the benefit of all.
Ecosystem engagement
We are committed to actively engage in growing the proptech ecosystem by participating in PropTech Denmark activities and by investing in the community - in the form of capital, human resources, relations, and/or know how.
Portability of data
We are committed to work for the portability of data and to avoid digital silos in the industry. We believe that data must be easily shared through the systems employed in the value chain, and that this is obtained through open APIs and a growing intertwined ecosystem of technological solutions.
For people & planet
We are committed to drive culture, innovation, and new business models that addresses the urgent need for a sustainable real estate industry securing the future wellbeing of both people and planet.
Pushing digital transformation
We are committed to push the digital innovation agenda in real estate, and we believe that activating new technology and business models are key enablers to growth and sustainability.
Why
Technology and innovative solutions evolve at a faster pace than we have ever seen before on a global scale. Being able to adapt to change has become a prerequisite for success in an increasingly turbulent and fast-changing world.
New values
Today, real estate is measured by more than just rent. An asset’s value is increasingly determined by dynamic factors such as user experience, environment, atmosphere, flexibility, productivity, wellness, and sustainability – to name a few.
Ready for change
This shift requires owners and operators to think, strategise, plan, and recruit on entirely new terms, challenging status quo. Innovation, new technology, and digital transformation poses an opportunity to transform, better, and democratise our physical environment in ways that help humans prosper.
Stronger together
Leaders in real estate will have to capitalise on the profound changes in technology, demographics, and urbanisation. At PropTech Denmark, we firmly believe that solving big problems and fully utilising exciting opportunities in real estate requires collaboration across the value chain and its players.
