    Expertise beyond the PropTech Curtain | Drastic Talks with Nicole Bremner & Ben Lerner

    We're thrilled that Nicole Bremner, Property Developer, Investor and Founder is hosting our next Drastic Talks episode. Nicole has a fascinating story and now focuses on creating homes that are fit for purpose whether that be PRS, affordable or social housing. Currently a Director at East Eight in London, Nicole is joined by Ben Lerner who is Managing Director at Lerner Associates and has ~20 years in real estate technology, aka PropTech.   There is so much knowledge and expertise packed into this episode! With a focus on PropTech, they talk about the origins of the word (which is really just software for real estate) and the wide range of what it covers, how much everything revolves around data mining and interpretation and presentation, ESG, and so much more. Nicole isn't afraid to ask the hard questions, too like if companies were overdone in their evaluation - are they really worth that much?   Nicole and Ben are a fantastic pair and listening into their conversation is a rare glance of what's happening behind the scenes. Enjoy! Watch the video format!

    ROI, PNL & Vertical Farms | Drastic Talks #4 with Jon Finkelstein & Andrew Bowerbank

    In this episode of Drastic Talks, we're joined by Andrew Bowerbank, Chair of the Transformation Initiative and Ontario Premier's Award Recipient, and our host Jon Finkelstein, Executive Creative Director at PWC Canada.   We've structured our economies to run so that one person is trained to do one thing really really well. That productivity format demonstrated how effective it is to let people become experts at what they do. But, that has led to siloing. Until we figure out how to break those silos down, we're going to have problems.  Andrew talks about this in real estate, efficiency in operations and in managing costs, and so much more in this discussion. He says we've come so far but we have a ways to go.   There're so many interesting topics that Andrew and Jon cover in this hour that it flies by and it's hard to summarize in this short post!
