BuildingMinds and Optiml Announce Strategic Partnership to Empower Real Estate Stakeholders with Streamlined Data Exchange, Enhanced Retrofit Analysis, Comprehensive Reporting, and Optimized CapEx...
Announcement – MIPIM Cannes 2025
LONDON, March 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- 65% of organizations globally now report regularly using AI,[1] yet less than 2% of CIOs in asset management claim to have fully operational AI use cases in their organizations[2] and nearly half of these are frustrated to use new solutions due to lack of integration between other technologies[3]. At the same time, the real estate market struggles with a number of challenges centered around both getting the right data in-hand and, understanding how to take action on the back of this data to reduce CO2 emissions and improve net operating income (NOI). The applications of AI in real estate are many but decarbonization is among the most essential.
Furthermore, decarbonization has become an unavoidable reality in the real estate sector, and legislative mandates have positioned it as a key driver of long-term value creation. While recent regulatory shifts in the US and the EU Omnibus Proposal may ease reporting requirements, the urgency to accelerate sustainable transformation remains unchanged.
To help address these industry-wide challenges, BuildingMinds and Optiml – two AI-led data platforms - will engage in a strategic partnership. The partnership will bring ESG data together with in-depth retrofit and investment planning capabilities at the real estate portfolio and asset level.
Key benefits of the partnership include:
Marek Sacha CEO of BuildingMinds, said, "We are thrilled to partner with Optiml, a company that shares our vision of driving innovation, sustainability and operational efficiency for asset owners and managers.
