DLA Piper 5th Annual Israel Real Estate Summit

We just got back from DLA Piper’s 5th Annual Israel Real Estate Summit in Israel, with Jeremy Lustman, Head of Israel Country Group, and it was amazing! The summit attracted more than 180 attendees from leading real estate investors all over the world, local developers, and major dealmakers.

We had a great time sharing the stage with some of the most interesting companies in the sector to discuss some of the biggest challenges we face on a panel titled “PropTech – Where Innovation Meets the Traditional.” Paul Jayson from DLA Piper moderated the discussion on how developers and investors are evolving in the rapidly changing world where the application of technology to real estate has caused widespread market disruption. Besides our very own L.D. Salmanson, panelists included Ely Razin from CrediFi, Rachel Kisler from Kensee, Benjy Singer from WeWork, and Charles Agus, from Benedict Realty Group.

We also had the privilege of hearing from industry leaders, including Alex Foshay from Newmark Grubb Knight Frank and Keith Hall from KBS Capital Advisors, who focused on trends and opportunities in the US commercial real estate market, as well as dynamics related to their successful bond raise in Israel last year.

We can’t wait for next year’s conference!
