Startups and tech have changed the landscape of the real estate sector significantly, especially in New York. The real estate market is complex and has recently evolved to heavily incorporate advancements in tech. Real estate has a rich history in New York, with a long legacy of companies and firms on the scene, making real estate startups different from startups in other spaces.

Join us on January 29th for a panel on what people must know when venturing out to build a real estate startup.

We’ll hear from founders about…

• How they launched
• Stories behind their growth thus far
• Challenges in navigating the real estate space (locally, nationally and abroad)
• Working with the legacy companies who have, until very recently, defined the landscape
