Good day, Anders Sorman-Nilsson here, futurist, and the founder of the research think tank - Thinque - which is based in Sydney and Stockholm, today broadcasting from the Grand Hyatt in Shanghai. This is a city transformed by the latest and the greatest in real estate thinking. The city used to be an old fishing village but nowadays it represents the idea of the future of cities.
Shanghai was chosen as the location of the Cushman & Wakefield Asia Pacific Leadership Conference where I have been keynoting and hanging out. The reason they chose me as a futurist was to discuss some of the future trends that are going to impact the idea of commercial and corporate real estate.
In the video above I discuss 3 technological and digital trends that will shape the real estate industry in a world of digital disruption. Check it out!
The growth in the on-demand economy is not just shaping the future of the food industry as I wrote about in the previous blog post, it is also one of the key trends impacting the commercial and corporate real estate into the future. Here is a another interesting article, The Rise of the On-Demand Economy, which connects with the ideas I speak about in the video above.
