The June 18, 2020 episode of the RealNex Webinar Series featured Geoffrey Kasselman, SIOR, AP Leed and his presentation of The Exponential Future of Real Estate.

Geoff provided a highlight reel of the exponential technologies that are transforming our world, the expected disruption and the convergence that is likely to take place. He also shined a light on the X Factors that could accelerate, decelerate or change the course. To set the stage the he referenced a quote from The 2019 World Economic Forum:
