At VTS Accelerate 2019, our CEO and Co-Founder Nick Romito opened the event with his keynote presentation. He spoke about the massive digital transformation the commercial real estate industry is currently experiencing. To set the stage, he outlined several trends that are set to transform this sector as we know it:

• According to JLL, over 30% of all U.S. office space will be flex space by 2030.
• With the resurgence of Amazon and e-commerce, retail is changing forever.
• Industrial has experienced such high demand, the sector is taking empty malls and transforming them into fulfillment centers.

While it’s natural to fear such change as disruption, Nick encouraged the audience to think about the massive opportunity that this change offers landlords to push their companies to new heights. And as Nick pointed out – disruption is only a bad thing if you let it happen to you.
