Immersive Breakout Sessions and Practical Applications of AI
CREtech New York’s breakout sessions are designed for practical, hands-on learning that’s directly applicable to our work in real estate. I'm most excited about serving as a facilitator at "The CREtech Conversations Breakout Session on “From Insights to Impact – How AI and LLMs are Driving Commercial Value in CRE”, led by my team Blue Orange Digital .

Notably, "Tech Blitz Demo by UrbanMix: Optimizing Asset Management with AI and 3D Efficiency", featuring Urbanmix.tech CEO Sharon Yavo Ayalon , is set to showcase how AI and 3D tools can streamline asset management and maximize property value. These sessions not only highlight new technologies but also provide actionable insights into how we can integrate these tools to drive real value in our portfolios.
