Digital economy challenges real estate sector: disruptors at the door | MIPIM | Wealth Migrate 10min

MIPIM http://www.mipim.com/ is the largest real estate event in the world, with 21,000 people attending and the most astute property professionals globally, from governments and institutions to developers and investors, coming to Cannes, France, annually. It is where they share everything learnt from the previous year and focus on the year ahead. For 26 years, it is where the people who manage all the money in real estate globally come to refine their strategies for the year ahead, network and do deals. This year, the organisers decided, for the first time ever, to focus on the digital revolution and the impact it is having on real estate. Big data, smart cities, crowdfunding, building information modelling (BIM), the sharing economy, open data, and the impact of millennials were fiercely reviewed and examined as forces for disruptive change. Scott Picken is the Founder and Chairmen of International Property Solutions and Founder and CEO of Wealth Migrate, both vehicles to help people invest safely in international property. http://www.scottpicken.com Wealth Migrate, Your Trusted Global Real Estate Marketplace, is leading The Wealth Movement in globally creating wealth for all through real estate crowdfunding! http://www.wealthmigrate.com Wealth Migrate will do this through the power of the crowd and technology, by helping investors have access to invest and partner with the safest and best opportunities locally or internationally, while letting real estate providers have access to the depth and quality of global investors, thus creating global wealth for all!

Wealth Migrate’s foundations are built firmly on three core values, trust, transparency and most importantly making sure that everyone’s interests are aligned. It is a blend of nature’s laws and technology which revolves around partnerships, as nature teaches us - when birds fly in a flock, versus flying on their own, a bird in a flock can fly 70% further than a bird on their own. What differentiates Wealth Migrate is its team’s experience, track record and results in International Real Estate. Along with 19 published books (including New York Times bestsellers), clients have trusted us to invest $1.34Billion in international real estate, on 5 continents over 3 decades. We focus to remain locally legal, yet act globally. By leading The Wealth Movement, our purpose is to empower an extra billion people on this planet by 2020 through access to real estate and the wealth effect. http://www.wealthmigrate.com 49% of the world’s wealth is held in real estate, for as long as man has accumulated wealth, land and real estate have been the number one vehicle of growing and preserving wealth. However out of 7 billion people, only 12,9% of people have access to real estate. It greatest barrier to entry is experience, geography and the funding gap. Scott Picken says, “Our aim, Project Double The Wealth, is to at least double this to 25% globally by 2020 and give access to everyone who is like-minded and understands the power of the crowd working together, just like in nature. As when birds fly in a flock, versus flying on their own, a bird in a flock can fly 70% future than a bird on their own.” http://www.wealthmovement.com #realestate #wealthmigrate #crowdfunding #realestatecrowdfunding #IPS #wealthmovement #empoweryourself
