About CoRE Tech


CoRE Tech is the technology strategy event created specifically for corporate occupiers and the practitioners, partners, and experts helping them navigate this change. Organized around Portfolio Intelligence, Smart and Secure Buildings, and Workplace and Experience, the program uses candid case studies, peer exchange, and collaborative sessions to explore what is creating value now, where execution is falling short, and what it takes to move forward.

Tech REset - Now to Next: Focus. Adjust. Accelerate.
Corporate Real Estate is becoming an increasingly connected enterprise. The teams responsible for portfolios, facilities, workplaces, data, and technology can no longer operate in isolation. At the same time, the technologies, workplace assumptions, and operating models that have long guided the industry are shifting. AI is accelerating the pace of change, cybersecurity is raising the stakes, and organizations face growing pressure to improve portfolio performance.

Now to Next provides a framework for responding with purpose: Focus on the priorities that matter, Adjust strategies and operating models as conditions evolve, and Accelerate the ideas ready to deliver value at scale.

Why CoRE Tech

Corporate Real Estate has become a connected enterprise. Portfolio strategy, building operations, workplace experience, data, AI, and cybersecurity can no longer be addressed in isolation. CoRE Tech brings together the people responsible for making these systems work as one. Through practitioner case studies, candid peer exchange, and collaborative discussions, attendees gain a clearer view of what is working, what is changing, and what comes next.

Portfolio Intelligence
Data, analytics, and AI for better portfolio, capital, location, and utilization decisions.

Workplace and Experience
Connecting people, place, and technology to create more responsive environments.

A History of Looking Ahead
Realcomm launched CoRE Tech in 2010 to create a dedicated forum where technology was the central corporate real estate conversation. Since then, the event has explored many of the issues now shaping the industry, from portfolio utilization and workplace flexibility to smart campuses, enterprise integration, and AI-enabled buildings.

                Bring the Work. Share the Lesson
                The most valuable CoRE Tech conversations begin with real work: a decision made, an approach tested, a challenge encountered, or a lesson learned.

                We are inviting corporate real estate practitioners, technology leaders, and subject-matter experts
                to contribute case studies, implementation stories, and informed perspectives to the CoRE Tech program. 

                We are especially interested in

                • Real-world projects with measurable results
                • Candid lessons from implementations that did not go as planned
                  • New approaches to portfolio intelligence, smart and secure buildings, and workplace experience
                  • Cross-functional challenges involving data, AI, cybersecurity, integration, or operating ownership
                  • Questions that deserve deeper industry discussion

                  CoRE Tech is built around useful conversations, not presentations or product pitches. If you have work, insight, or a perspective that could help the community move forward, we would like to hear from you.
