Corporate Real Estate 2020

Corporate Real Estate 2020 is a research and leadership program designed and managed by CoreNet Global members to address the business environment in the future and to collect, package and distribute state-of-the-art best practices, tools, models and case studies to help members prepare to meet future business needs.

To achieve this objective, designated teams across a number of research areas initially developed a draft vision for the industry (i.e. Bold Statements) that serves as a starting point for validation and refinement. The current team areas include:

• Technology Tools

• Sustainability

• Portfolio Optimization and Asset Management

• Location Strategy and the Role of Place

• Service Delivery and Outsourcing

• Enterprise Leadership

• Workplace

• Partnering with Key Support Functions

The teams are currently interviewing a number of senior industry leaders and will utilize other resources to obtain further insights that will help shape a new vision and offer potential strategies to assist corporate real estate organizations in transforming themselves to meet the challenges ahead as the economy changes and new business models evolve. The teams are currently endeavoring to consolidate their findings and produce programs, reports and other materials by the CoreNet Global Summit in San Diego in April 2012.
