The real estate industry has largely lagged behind other industries in developing and integrating technology. Technology, especially advanced analytical tools such as AI and machine learning (ML), require a much more structured and sophisticated approach than what most of the real estate industry has adopted thus far.
Josh Panknin from Columbia University's Center for Artificial Intelligence in Business Analytics and Fintech will open this event with an intriguing presentation on the state of real estate technology today, highlighting challenges in the industry's current approach and suggesting what needs to change for the industry to see substantive impacts from technology.
Josh and Drew Conway, Head of Data Science, Private Investments at Two Sigma, will then engage in a fireside chat to discuss the real-world processes, challenges, and lessons learned from building advanced AI and ML applications in the real estate industry. Two Sigma is one of the leading quantitative investment firms in the world with a newly launched real estate platform led by Drew.
