The real estate industry is undergoing transformative change, driven by demographic shifts, rapid technological advancement, and increasing demands for sustainability. This lecture will examine how ultra-low fertility rates and rapidly aging populations are reshaping housing needs, how cutting-edge property technology (PropTech) is revolutionizing real estate operations, and how climate-conscious development is becoming a new industry standard. Drawing on Singapore’s experience as a global leader in sustainable development and smart city innovation, the session will offer key insights for real estate markets facing similar transitions. Attendees will gain a broad perspective on the trends redefining the future of real estate—from development and asset management to ESG integration and sustainable finance. The lecture will also showcase how the MSc programs at NUS prepare professionals to lead and innovate in this fast-evolving landscape.
