Marley Fabisiewicz shares a few examples of AI agents that Equiem is building with researchers at Carnegie Mellon University. These agents are being designed to one-day provide 24/7 personalized experiences for tenants and building/space operating teams.

Some of the examples shared are Agents for Workspace Design, Facility Management, IoT, Personal Assistance, ESG reporting, Property Management and a Concierge. Marley rightly notes that to scale such products, operators need to start making a bunch of strategic data decisions.

P.S. From my day job, many of the most forward-thinking brands are already making moves around preparing their data to become a competitive asset in a future of agents and interface-less experiences. Don’t miss this boat!

Marley Fabisiewicz shares that spaceOS workspace management company has been acquired by Equiem, an office-building tenant experience company.

The combined workspace and tenant experience company will serve 850 buildings, hosting 15k companies and 300k users. Worth keeping an eye on, especially as there will be more and more M&A around building and coworking-specific tech solutions. #callingit

Miro Miroslavov from OfficeRnD and Paul Stanton from Proptech Bankers put together a (longer) read on how asset managers can leverage flexibility & tech to drive more revenue into their buildings.

Mentioned are lulafit, OfficeRnD, Valve, Syncaroo, LiquidSpace, PilotoMail, HqO, VTS Rise, Equiem, Brivo, Kisi, Sharry, SwiftConnect, essensys, IronWiFI, isofy and others. A useful list for both indie operators and landlords exploring/implementing flex if you ask me.

Gabrielle McMillan from Equiem shares their key takeaways around what will bring teams to the office more, from a survey of 1000s of office tenants.

Some high-level stats around what folks want to come to the office more showed a 2,173% increase in "food & retail options" and a 1,767% jump in "events near work" since last year. 40% also noted "health & fitness amenities" and 39% said "discounts on food & retail". So keep those in mind with regarding your partnership & location strategies for 2023 and beyond.
