Live Webinar
The property firms pulling ahead in the next 18 months are making decisions now. The role of the property manager is evolving, the metrics investors care about are shifting, and the businesses that move early will operate at a fundamentally different level to those that don't.
Hear from three leaders already on the other side of this shift and seeing the results.
GGP, Derek Veren, VP Information Technology » Redesigning how 100 retail properties operate in an agentic world
JLL, Yao Morin, CTO » Building the data foundations that make AI deliver real returns at scale
Re-Leased, Tom Wallace, CEO » Tracking what AI is doing to the costs and growth trajectories of property businesses just like yours
You will leave knowing where the industry is heading and what the businesses getting real results are doing differently > the moves that matter most for your business in the next 12-18 months.
Wed July 1st · 9am CDT / 10am ET / 3pm BST

The Panel

Chief Technology Officer, JLL
Yao leads the global technology and data strategy, product roadmap and delivery at JLL. She oversees a centralized engineering group of more than 800 team members, spearheading data solutions, advanced analytics, and AI capability across one of the world's largest real estate services firms.
She has designed and led multiple platform modernisation and data transformation programs inside Fortune 500 companies, building the foundations that make AI work at scale, not in pilots but in production, and bringing innovative technology into JLL and the wider commercial real estate industry. Yao will tell you what the data shows, where most organisations go wrong before they even start, and what a genuinely AI-ready data foundation looks like in practice.

VP, Information Technology, GGP
Derek is a technology leader at GGP, a 70-year leader in U.S. retail real estate, where he focuses on driving digital innovation across the company's 100+ property portfolio. Prior to GGP, he spent over a decade supporting global architecture and design firms, developing a strong foundation in spatial analytics and IT for the built environment.
Today, Derek helps shape GGP’s thinking on how physical retail evolves in an agentic, AI-driven world. Passionate about connecting people, processes, and platforms to deliver meaningful outcomes, he will bring the operational reality that most AI conversations skip: what it actually takes to move technology across 100 properties, with real teams, real infrastructure, and real accountability for the outcome.
Chief Executive Officer & Founder, Re-Leased
Tom Wallace founded Re-Leased over a decade ago on a simple conviction: commercial real estate was long overdue a technology rethink. Today the platform manages $22 billion in rent roll across more than 370,000 leases on three continents.
In the last two years Tom has led Re-Leased through a genuine AI-first transformation, natively embedding AI and agentic capability before most of the industry had decided whether to experiment. He has a front-row seat to what AI is doing to the economics of property management across thousands of live businesses, and will share what separates the businesses seeing real outcomes from the ones still running trials, and what it actually takes to make AI part of how you operate every day.
What We Cover
The organisational model that has run property management for the last thirty years is being restructured from the bottom up. AI is absorbing the admin-heavy layer. What remains is higher-value, higher-margin human work. The businesses that understand this restructuring early will run leaner, scale faster, and retain better people.
What does that mean for how businesses are structured and the opportunities available?
Ninety percent of property businesses are experimenting with AI. Only five percent feel they have achieved their goals. What separates the businesses that are making real progress from the ones still stuck in pilot mode? The data governance, the change management, the sequencing.
A practical look at what the leaders doing it well have in common, and the specific moves that separate them from the rest.
The performance metrics that investors and owners use to evaluate property businesses are changing. Operational efficiency ratios, portfolio capacity per head, and technology maturity are becoming part of the conversation in ways they were not two years ago.
This is a direct look at how the benchmark is shifting, what good will look like in 12 to 18 months, and the strategic decisions that leaders need to make now to be on the right side of it.
