Different Ways Proptech Can Drive An Economic Recovery  - Facility Executive
The current market is particularly challenging: organizations are facing the combined pressures of inflation, increased sales cycles, global conflicts, and reduced investments. Executives are looking at the workplace as a critical lever to adapt to these headwinds. At the same time, many executives are looking out at empty offices, with post-pandemic remote or hybrid work policies allowing employees to come in once or twice per week—if at all.
Businesses will continue to face tough decisions throughout 2023. But by taking advantage of technology and building data insights with these four strategies, facilities executives can help drive a long-term economic recovery:
- Optimizing space utilization 
- Facilitating effective workflows 
- Driving energy savings 
- Creating a more productive and comfortable workplace

Three Trends Driving Proptech Innovation—And What Other Businesses Can Learn - Forbes
