Our Journey and Future Plans
Over the past year, we've fostered an inclusive business environment by launching the Ethnic Minority Business Barometer, implementing an advanced CRM system, and debuting a new web platform. In 2025, we will partner with IMS Systems to invest in generative AI, data analytics, and we launch the Property Network with its own membership and awards.
