Real Estate in the Digital Economy: During and After the Pandemic

Description

The Covid-19 Pandemic has affected everyone globally. It has forced many to work remotely from home and businesses to cease operations during lockdowns. The sudden need to adapt to the changes and challenges posed by the pandemic has impacted the manner in which we use real estate – particularly in the office, shopping and hotel sectors. 

The Philippines, being one of the hardest hit countries in Asia, felt the jolt and the pressure to quickly become agile in approaching the unforeseen. While many  businesses have responded swiftly to transform their businesses for survival, these questions may yet remain unanswered for some in the local real estate industry today:

  • How do we put to better use and maximize real estate at this time?

  • What can we do to redesign real estate to address the current changes in demands and needs of the market?

  • How do we ensure that business activities and our lives go on during this period and post-pandemic? 

  • What can we learn from the businesses that continue to do well during this time and those that are preparing for the post-pandemic future?  

  • What will it take to ensure success in the real estate business at this time?  

The world's response is showing promise through new business models and digital platforms and some businesses are able to survive and even thrive during the pandemic.  In this learning session, the seasoned international real estate practitioners will provide insights and assessments on the impact of the pandemic to the local real estate landscape.

Furthermore, with fast changes occurring in the business world driven by new business models, international flows of funds and new digital technology, this session hopes to shed light on approaches done internationally that may be adaptable for the Philippine market. 

One of the highlights of this session is the role of digital technology in strengthening real estate business not only for the present but as a preparation for the post-pandemic world. 

Real Estate in the Digital Economy is exclusively offered by the Ateneo Graduate School of Business - Center for Continuing Education  in collaboration with VestAsia Group of Singapore.
