The PropTech sector witnessed a ground-breaking moment for Women in PropTech, with the launch of the ‘Women in the Built World Community’ on the ProptechBuzz platform. This initiative is designed to foster connection, collaboration, and growth for women across the real estate technology landscape—bringing together investors, founders, strategists, and operators under one vibrant, supportive network.
To celebrate the launch, ProptechBuzz hosted a dynamic panel discussion featuring some of the most influential female leaders driving change in the PropTech industry.
The panelists included - Lisa Cations, Founder of JCR Advisors, Angie Mahtaney, a seasoned PropTech investor and Alina Aeby, Founder and President of the Silicon Valley PropTech Association. The event also brought together thought leaders, and investors including, Julieta Moradei, Managing Partner and Founder at Overlay Capital Build, Kateryna Pylypchuk, Business Scaling Strategist at Modulina, and, Elin Martensson, Founder & CEO AI-BOB, to explore cutting-edge strategies and diversify the PropTech ecosystem.
With the PropTech industry evolving rapidly, this exclusive conversation provided deep insights into how through this community, startups can scale, secure investments, and leverage technology to drive innovation.
The discussion underscored how important female leadership is to PropTech's growth and how diversity of opinion and experience is propelling the sector forward. These issues can be brought together on a community platform that empowers women.
Here, speakers explored the growing interest of investors in AI-powered and sustainable real estate technology solutions, highlighting the potential of up-and-coming entrepreneurs to transform consumer experiences and real estate operations.
The presenters also discussed the difficulties that women in PropTech encounter, such as funding and market entry obstacles, and provided solutions. To help more women succeed in the field, they emphasized the value of networking, mentoring, and collaborative ecosystems.
The crucial significance of diversity in the PropTech industry was one of the primary topics covered during the conversation. A diverse industry attracts stronger teams, wider ideas, and ultimately better solutions, the panellists stressed. Their goal with the Women in the Built World Community is to establish a controlled environment where women can network, share knowledge, and become more visible in a field that has historically been dominated by men.
Community support is crucial for women who are just starting out their PropTech ventures or even for those who want to switch careers. In order to meet mentors and possible partners, speakers encouraged newcomers to get involved in forums, go to events, and take advantage of the community features on the new ProptechBuzz website. The panel discussed how even seemingly insignificant contacts, like contacting other community members following webinars or events, can result in significant employment prospects.
Current investment trends were also clarified by the conversation, particularly with reference to ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) objectives. Startups that put sustainability, digitisation, and efficiency first are attracting more and more attention from investors. The panel's female founders and investors urged female entrepreneurs to match their inventions with these trends, highlighting the significant role PropTech can play in mitigating climate concerns and lowering the carbon footprint of the built environment.
The panellists encouraged entrepreneurs from around the world to investigate prospects in states like Ukraine's real estate and construction sector, emphasising the need for robots and AI integration. The focus is to underline that the next five to 10 years will be shaped by technology that cuts down on waste, time, and CO2 emissions. The discussion further promoted greater collaboration, pushing executives and technologists to introduce AI-powered solutions and environmentally friendly materials to the market, in addition to her own company's usage of low-tech solutions.
All of the leaders emphasised the importance of mentoring and encouraged women to take on mentoring responsibilities in addition to seeking advice. The dedication of each panellist to invite another exceptional female leader to future panels—ensuring a continuously growing network of knowledge and inspiration—was a distinctive feature of the community's opening event.
With a focus on advancing women professionals in real estate technology, this community platform is the first of its kind in the ProptechBuzz ecosystem. The platform provides networking opportunities, regular discussions, and access to business executives who are dedicated to fostering the advancement of women.
The ‘Women in the Built World Community’ is positioned to be your go-to network for staying informed, getting active, and succeeding in PropTech, regardless of your background as an investor, startup, student, or seasoned professional.
