--- title: CREtech New York Announces Multifamily Technology Leadership Session Featuring RXR, Morgan Properties, Rose Associates, Kennedy Wilson and ElevateOS description: "NEW YORK, N.Y., October 7, 2026 — CREtech, the leading global community of professionals devoted to technological and sustainable innovation in the built environment, today announced the latest speaker lineup for a keynote-stage session at CREtech New York 2026, taking place October 20–21 at the Javits Center.\nTitled “The Effective Tech Stack for Multifamily: From Operations to Resident Experience,” the session will take place on Tuesday, October 20, from 1:00 p.m. to 1:40 p.m. EDT on the CREtech New York Keynote Stage.\nTechnology has become the operating backbone of multifamily real estate. Beyond supporting resident convenience, it now plays a central role in asset performance, operational efficiency and portfolio-wide decision-making. Yet as the number of point solutions continues to grow, owners and operators face an increasingly important question: What does an effective, integrated and scalable technology stack actually look like in practice?\nSponsored and moderated by ElevateOS, the session will bring together senior technology, operations, development and residential leaders from some of the industry’s most prominent multifamily organizations:\n- Devang Patel, SVP, Head of Technology, Morgan Properties\n- Eric Cohen, Managing Director, Development and Construction, Kennedy Wilson\n- Christopher Blackman, Managing Director, Information Technology, Rose Associates\n- Whitney Arcaro, EVP, Chief Revenue Officer, Residential, RXR\n- Konrad Koczwara, CEO, ElevateOS, serving as moderator\nTogether, the speakers will examine how leading multifamily organizations are building, integrating and scaling their technology strategies across large and diverse portfolios, from back-end operations to the resident-facing experience.\nThe discussion will explore the challenge of consolidating point solutions into a more unified and scalable technology ecosystem, where technology is creating the greatest operational efficiencies, and how digital tools are reshaping communication, service delivery and resident satisfaction.\nThe panel will also look at how technology decisions made during development and construction can shape long-term operational performance from day one. Attendees will hear practical lessons from leaders actively implementing technology strategies across major multifamily portfolios, including what is working, where integration challenges remain and how organizations are preparing their technology infrastructure for continued growth and innovation.\n“As multifamily organizations adopt more technology, the conversation is shifting from individual solutions to the effectiveness of the entire ecosystem,” said Michael Beckerman, CEO of CREtech. “This session will give attendees a practical look at how major owners and operators are connecting technology decisions to operational outcomes, resident expectations and long-term asset performance.”\n\nCREtech New York 2026 will bring together real estate owners, operators, occupiers, investors, technology companies and industry leaders to examine how artificial intelligence and emerging technologies are reshaping the built environment.\nSession Details\nSession: The Effective Tech Stack for Multifamily: From Operations to Resident Experience\nDate: Tuesday, October 20, 2026\nTime: 1:00 p.m. – 1:40 p.m. EDT\nLocation: CREtech New York Keynote Stage, Javits Center, New York City\nSponsored by: ElevateOS\nModerator: Konrad Koczwara, CEO, ElevateOS" image: https://cretech.com/hubfs/Panel%20Occupier%20(3).png --- [Skip to content](https://cretech.com/cretech-new-york-blog/cretech-new-york-announces-multifamily-technology-leadership-session-featuring-waterton-morgan-properties-kennedy-wilson-and-elevateos#main-content) This is a search field with an auto-suggest feature attached. - There are no suggestions because the search field is empty.
