BIG x PropTech Council Panel: Piloting PropTech @ The Union

Most technology pilots start with a handshake and end in a drawer. How do you ensure yours actually scales? Join the Building Intelligence Group (BIG) Boston and the US PropTech Council for an evening of real talk on how to make your pilot successful -- whether you're a technology vendor or a building owner. We're bringing together the entire ecosystem -- owners, operators, founders, consultants, and VCs -- to deconstruct what makes a pilot thrive and what makes it fail. **What you'll learn:** - How to structure a pilot that has a real path to full deployment - What building owners actually need to see before they say yes - The most common mistakes PropTech founders make (and how to avoid them) - How to align incentives between vendors and operators from day one - What VCs and consultants look for when evaluating PropTech readiness **Who should attend:** - PropTech founders and startup teams looking to land or scale pilots - Building owners and operators evaluating new technology - Real estate developers exploring smart building solutions - VCs and investors in the PropTech space - Consultants advising on technology adoption in real estate **Format:** 4:00 PM — Doors open, networking, food & beverages 4:30 PM — Panel discussion: "From Handshake to Scale" 5:30 PM — Audience Q&A 5:45 PM — Open networking 6:00 PM — Close Come for the insights, stay for the industry's best networking.
