COVID-19 has been a wake-up call for owners, managers and institutional investors within our industry, many of whom are drawing parallels between the ‘new normal’ forced on us by the current pandemic and the unforeseen challenges that could arise from other global issues like climate change. Are we doing enough
to buffer our properties and businesses exposure against the tectonic shifts in society that are not only possible, but now proven probable and deeply
challenging? Join us as the speaker provides insights into the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on consumer behaviour through the lens of utility consumption (electricity and water) and explores both the challenges and opportunities in front of your properties. Gain a deeper understanding of utility usage during the pandemic, including a closer inspection of some of the highest rising commodities; the challenges these changes in usage pose for owners, investors and their teams; how the industry’s top performers are combating usage spikes in both the short and long term; and some of the technologies invented and deployed
during the pandemic.
