The Center for Corporate Real Estate Innovation was created by San Francisco-based commercial listings provider RealCentric.com as a research and education branch. The group's advisory board held its first quarterly meeting July 31-Aug.1 in San Francisco.
Known as CENTRE i, the nonprofit was founded as a means of introducing new capabilities to an industry not always known for its tech-savvy.
"It's actually more of a think-tank strategic type of body that will be looking at innovations and technology as the industry is transforming," spokeswoman Susan Brown told GlobeSt.com. "The real estate industry is evolving and (commercial real estate) has not been an early adapter to technology, so all of these key individuals from large corporate ... entities want to be involved."
