    Comments Off on WiredScore’s Q1 2025 events: Spotlight on MIPIM and beyond

    As we wrap up the first quarter of 2025, we reflect on some of the impactful events that have strengthened our commitment to enhancing digital connectivity in real estate, particularly in our European markets.

    The events we attended in Q1 emphasized the growing importance of hybrid work and the need for tech-enabled, connected spaces in the future of real estate.

    Sustainability emerged as a central focus, with a strong emphasis on net-zero buildings and the integration of smart technology to reduce environmental impact. The role of proptech and AI in transforming workspace design and usage was also a major takeaway, reinforcing the importance of innovation in shaping the next generation of smarter, more adaptable workspaces.

    These insights will drive WiredScore’s continued commitment to creating future-ready, connected spaces.

  2. The Growing Importance of Power in Industrial Real Estate: Lessons from Heathrow’s Recent Outage

    Comments Off on The Growing Importance of Power in Industrial Real Estate: Lessons from Heathrow’s Recent Outage

    In recent weeks, the world was reminded of just how critical power is to the global economy. A major power outage at Heathrow Airport, one of the busiest transport hubs in the world, disrupted operations and created ripple effects across industries. While the situation at Heathrow was temporary, it was not the only power-outage story to have hit the headlines lately; Chile’s capital Santiago saw a similar situation less than a month before. Both instances have served to underscore an important reality: reliable, resilient, and sustainable power is no longer a luxury, it’s a fundamental requirement for industrial real estate.

    In the realm of industrial real estate, power plays a pivotal role in shaping everything from operational efficiency to tenant satisfaction and long-term viability. Power interruptions, even brief ones, have far-reaching consequences and highlight the requirement for assets to have a seamless transition onto back-up power supply. With the global economy becoming increasingly dependent on continuous supply chains, digital systems, and advanced manufacturing, any disruption to power is a risk to productivity, profitability, and reputation.
