How can security solutions enhance the value of commercial real estate for property managers, owners and tenants? In our “Security as Proptech” session at SNG, leading experts in commercial real estate technology and the security of office environments will explore the interconnection between the tenant experience and security solutions and how these same security solutions help generate data to allow owners and managers the ability to study the efficient use of buildings.
