Digital technologies are providing opportunities for excellent environmental, social and governance (ESG) benefits in real estate. There are also multiple downside risks, which, if not well managed, can lose the confidence of our stakeholders, including tenants and investors. Sustainable digitalisation provides a pathway that helps navigate this dichotomy. 

• Reviewing examples of the upside and downside possibility with digitalisation 

• Considering what this might mean for social sustainability in real estate into the future 
• Applying the Sustainable Digitalisation Principles to help enjoy upside social benefits and avoid harms 

In this session, we bring together delegates in a series of 5 facilitated round table discussions, with leading industry experts.
