Top 18 Global Real Estate Technology Conferences and Events in 2022
Armed with a renewed sense of confidence, convention registrants are more eager than ever to attend live conferences. This is a result of declining COVID cases, successful vaccination programs, reliable diagnostics, effective prescriptions, improved travel and hospitality measures, and changes to mask mandate recommendations. While it will take time to reach registration levels comparable to 2019, the prospects for the event landscape are brighter than ever.
According to a recent survey conducted by Promo Leaf, 72% of people prefer in-person conferences, primarily because networking opportunities haven't been as effective in virtual and hybrid settings. Using customer engagement platforms such as Braze, some meeting planners can offer convention-goers a multi-channel approach to a personalized meeting experience, that includes mobile, web, email, and SMS.
A series of acclaimed real estate technology conferences are scheduled for 2022 at many popular destinations. Tech enthusiasts, CTOs, vendors, real estate technology industry members, startup founders and investors will be able to brainstorm, collaborate and engage with colleagues in an environment that fosters learning, bonding and camaraderie in an informal setting.
The current landscape provides the most ideal time in the past two years to attend a live conference. With real estate innovations that are radically changing the way real estate agents conduct business across the world, aspiring individuals will have infinite opportunities to interact, learn, innovate and forge mutually beneficial relationships, in a relaxed social environment.
