Video highlights from the Smart Cities & ESG Roundtables

For 8 years in a row, the Real Estate team at CMS has produced an annual Thought Leadership report based on major pieces of industry research, addressing key issues facing the real estate sector and exploring market trends.

Our 2019 Thought Leadership report, titled Urban Being, indicated that we were going to see unprecedented levels of interest and investment in all forms of rented accommodation in Europe’s leading cities that would reshape the local housing markets from an economic and political standpoint, but more importantly would better reflect how people of all ages want to live, work and play in our cities in the future. In particular, we explored how affordability and supply issues, coupled with shifting technological, economic and lifestyle factors, were shaping demand for rented residential solutions across generations and societal groups.

2020 started with ESG becoming a guiding principle for global investors and institutions, responding to the climate crisis being recognised as a top priority, and then Covid-19 happened. We decided that our report, called Real Estate Reset, should focus on the ‘S’ part of ESG and take a detailed look at market reaction to the pandemic and the lasting impact it could have on the office asset class and the way in which we will adapt to our new working environment.

We feel that these 2 Thought Leadership pieces put us in a good position to facilitate and advance a conversation around Smart Cities and ESG and we have organised a series of roundtables with key industry players to discuss topics such as:

Smart Living
Virtual Twins
Data capture and analysis
How can data prove sustainability and social value?
Tenant relationships – green leases and what do tenants want
Energy consumption – carbon, bio diversity
Wellbeing vs sustainability
