The AI in Real Estate Summit sponsored by Intapp, Lerner Associates, Facilimax, Regions Bank, Real Estate Technology Transformation Center, and Revolution RE brings together senior commercial real estate executives β REIT CEOs, CIOs, fund managers, and institutional operators β for an exclusive four-hour evening forum on artificial intelligence in the built environment. Co-located with NY Tech Week, Nareit's REITWeek and hosted by the US Proptech Council, the Summit features a curated startup showcase, two executive panels on AI adoption and responsible AI governance, and an open networking reception. This is not a general technology conference. It is a peer-level conversation among the decision-makers who are actively deploying AI across portfolios, operations, and underwriting β and who are accountable for doing it responsibly.
