We had the pleasure of attending CRE // Tech Intersect on June
18th in San Francisco. Intersect,
for those of you who have yet to experience this fantastic event, is the
commercial real estate industry's leading symposium on emerging and innovative
technologies. CRE // Tech (not to be confused with our very own CRE Tech, Inc.) is the organization that hosts
this joining of commercial real estate and technology.
We attended
Intersect for the first time at its debut event in Austin during SXSW this past
spring. We got to listen to an informative panel of speakers and browse the latest
technology designed to advance the industry. We immediately knew TheAnalyst®PRO needed to be a part
of it.
So in San
Francisco, we set-up a demo station on the 46th floor of the landmark
101 California,
overlooking the beautiful bay. Over the course of the event, we presented
TheAnalyst® PRO to many of the 300+ attendees. This is our favorite part of
what we do—showing brokers first-hand how this app makes their jobs so much
easier.

Plus, we were
able to share the features of our soon-to-be-released app enhancements: the
Aerial & Location Map Tool and our newest Location Risk Analysis Tool—Environmental
Hazards.
In speaking
with the attendees, we were reminded of our impetus to develop TheAnalyst® PRO:
commercial real estate often lags behind in the technology sector, especially
when compared to residential RE. Yet, there is a great need for information,
accuracy, timeliness and mobility that technology easily affords. We at CRE
Tech, Inc., are excited to be at the forefront of this technological push. By collaborating
with fellow industry professionals, we hope to strengthen the union of tech and
commercial real estate.

We are looking forward to once again demonstrating TheAnalyst® PRO’s ever-expanding
capabilities at the next Intersect in NYC this October.
