🗣️ WOMEN TALK REAL ESTATE – SPEAKERS’ CAFÉ ☕ Our associate director, Michelle Cooper joined a panel at Diversity Talks Real Estate’s Speakers’ Café yesterday, where market trends, ESG and DEI were the topics on discussion. Speaker highlights and key takeaways include: 📉 Current market conditions – panellists concurred that clients and project experts are increasingly more creative and flexible when developing project solutions, which is pushing routine collaboration and the formation of inclusive environments. 💷 The current economic climate’s impact on design requirements – value engineering has become more of a process requirement and key to achieving an optimal product with minimised resources. Expediting the value engineering process requires maximising stakeholder engagement and collaboration beyond the routine. 🌱 Embracing sustainability requirements practically – organisations and subject matter experts are analysing not only cost data throughout the project lifecycle for sustainable solutions, but they’re also analysing post-occupancy information on a routine basis to understand their ROI. 💡 And lastly…for key capital expenditures facing scrutiny during the design process, panellists encourage investors, developers and owners to consider not only the upfront cost but the payoff down the road as well. #RealEstate #DEI #ESG #TeamPulse 📷 credit Diversity Talks Real Estate Ian Carey | James Peake | James O'Keeffe | Kevin Jones | Lee Cantrill | Graham Black
