How can property investment inspire and ignite change through ESG strategies? Our Group Executive, Head of Property Amanda Steele hosted a fireside discussion at the ANREV Conference this week to discuss why a strategic approach to ESG investment continues to be a priority for investors both locally and globally. At ISPT, we are inspired by the global movement to drive down carbon emissions, accelerate social impact, and deliver increased transparency regarding our ESG performance as part of a responsible investment approach aligned with our ambitious ESG targets. Thank you Rory Lonergan from Clean Energy Finance Corporation and Jonathan Hannam from Taronga Ventures, for joining the thought-provoking discussion to share your perspective on the future of ESG opportunities.

About us
At ISPT, we’re creating better futures. Established in 1994 by some of Australia’s leading industry superannuation funds, ISPT has grown over 30 years into a $20B portfolio of properties across Australia, ultimately benefitting the many working Australians who invest with us through their super funds to grow their retirement savings. At ISPT, we’re committed to not only delivering value for our investors’ members across our portfolio of office, retail, industrial, education, health and residential properties, we’re also committed to taking a leadership position within the property industry to create a more sustainable future. We were the first Australian property company to achieve Carbon Neutrality across our portfolio in 2020 and we maintain a laser focus on challenging ourselves to raise the bar to deliver even more sustainable outcomes for people and planet with our goal to become Carbon Positive by 2025. By continuing to create vibrant, meaningful places for people and communities to prosper, we believe we can continue to create better futures that leave a legacy for generations to come.

Did you know - youth homelessness affects around 40,000 young Australians each year? As part of our partnership with the Property Industry Foundation, whose purpose is to make a tangible impact on youth homelessness, we proudly hosted the Sydney PIF Wrap Night at our Sydney office last evening. Alongside fellow industry partners, we wrapped over 2,425 essential items like toiletries, clothing, and pantry supplies to support those in need this winter. The completed packs will be distributed to Sydney-based charities, Early Bird Cafe and The Salvation Army Australia Oasis Youth Services. A big thank you to the Property Industry Foundation and everyone involved in making a tangible impact on youth homelessness in Australia.

There’s no better way to connect with our properties than by being on the ground, seeing them come to life. Last week, our Sydney team embarked on a tour of our NSW Industrial portfolio, led by Head of Portfolio (Industrial) Tim Jackson and industrial team Adrian Grew, Colin Beckton, David Copley, Alex Hancock and Mark Griffiths. We explored our latest acquisitions, including the 52-hectare greenfield logistics development Summit at Kemps Creek and the expansive 280-hectare greenfield logistics development Burra Park, located on the doorstep of Western Sydney’s Aerotropolis precinct. The tour wrapped up with a check-in on our development progress at the Eastern Creek and Greystanes sites. Our team values the opportunity to step outside the office and see the projects we’re all helping to create.

How are we making the office experience more seamless and secure? By starting with innovation. In partnership with HID and onUgo, we’re proud to announce that ISPT is the first commercial real estate firm in Australia to deploy an employee badge in a digital wallet. This allows our tenant communities the convenience of seamless, contactless street-to-seat access to their office spaces and end of trip amenities and services, replacing the traditional swipe card with their smartphones and smart watches. In addition to 24 York and 345 George St at George Place, the digital solution has also been deployed at 477 Pitt Street in the heart of Sydney’s Tech Central with additional precincts in Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth to follow. Our Head of Portfolio (Office) Nicole Ward commented: “Our partnership with HID and technology partner onUgo is a testament to ISPT’s commitment to innovation and providing best in class experiences for our tenant partners. This is just the beginning of our journey towards creating a more connected, innovative and sustainable experience within our office communities.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/ggQnQyrh #proptech #workplace #innovation #digitalsolution #employeeexperience #digitalwallet HID - Physical Access Control Solutions Matthew Kelly James Giannikos Grainne Kearns Martin Heal
