In a trailblazing initiative aimed at advancing the $300 Trillion global built environment, Shadow Partners, a pioneer in driving innovation in the AEC industry, and CREtech, the leading global commercial real estate community and conference company dedicated to innovation and sustainability, have proudly unveiled a strategic partnership. 

This unprecedented collaboration will bridge the substantial gap between the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) community and the Commercial Real Estate (CRE) community, heralding a transformative era in an industry historically marked by fragmentation. The focus lies on pivotal issues such as decarbonization, sustainable innovation leadership, technology integration, and advanced risk management.

"The built environment industry is notoriously disjointed with project stakeholders operating in silos with misaligned values. If we are serious about improving how we design, build, and maintain our physical world for generations to come, we must foster collaboration from all fronts," expressed Shadow Partners Founder and CEO, KP Reddy.

As a pivotal step in this partnership, Shadow Partners will play a key role at the upcoming CREtech New York conference on November 13-14, 2024, serving as a host partner of the inaugural "AEC Zone." This zone will facilitate the convergence of senior executive leaders from the largest and most innovative AEC firms with the most ambitious commercial real estate owners and developers, collectively envisioning the future of our industry.

“This partnership represents a significant milestone towards a more integrated, sustainable, and innovative future in the built environment,” CREtech, CEO Michael Beckerman said. “The AEC sector is one that has extraordinary potential for tech adoption and investment in the future given the macro-economic challenges the industry faces on multiple fronts from supply chain challenges to labor shortages to the decarbonization of construction materials. Shadow Partners’ industry leadership, proven track record and substantial network in the AEC community makes them the ideal partner for CREtech to drive innovation in this massive marketplace,” Beckerman concluded.

In a recent Fireside Chat, KP Reddy and Michael Beckerman spoke on the significance of the strategic partnership. To receive a link to that conversation, visit CREtech+ at this link here.
