With the top proptech innovators and housing leaders in attendance, the three day conference packs a ton of value with dynamic sessions, interactive workshops, educational discussions, and networking opportunities.
This year’s agenda is tightly focused on top-of-mind topics around rental housing risks, technology integration, smart buildings, as well as machine learning and AI. If you’re an industry leader looking for the most important agenda items to attend at the event, we’ve highlighted three education sessions that should be on your radar:

Featuring LeaseLock’s CTO Sudip Shekhawat as the moderator, this session will discuss the potential of AI beyond leasing, and the challenges (like AI generated bias) standing in the way.
Bonus: The industry has only begun to tap the potential of AI tech and there’s a wealth of opportunities for its use beyond front-end applications. With new data strategies and an AI technology roadmap that encompasses core functions and back-end processes, operators can make informed, data-backed decisions to elevate and future-proof their assets.

Bonus: The rapid advancements of technology in the multifamily industry demand decision makers to develop a working knowledge of their capabilities. Understanding whether or not proptech solutions are completely integrated or simply interfacing is essential to ensuring your tech stack functions seamlessly.
