Our Mission
Accelerate the physical world through technology
Our Mission is to accelerate innovation in the real estate industry and improve how we live, work, sleep, consume, move, create, connect, and play. We envision a future where technology is seamlessly integrated into the physical spaces around us, creating a shared environment that is more accessible, efficient, and delightful than ever before.
We leverage the impact of technology on the real estate ecosystem to better match the expectations of users – users as occupiers of buildings and of cities.
From city planners to developers, asset managers and leasing agents, we foster technology to anticipate and meet the needs of these users.
We harness the power of technology to help take the real estate industry to the next level, as well as to improve the quality of life of users, whether through creating a more sustainable environment and a more inclusive society, or in areas such as healthcare, accessibility, affordability and work-life balance.
Partners
Our Limited Partners are the largest and most influential owners and operators of real estate in the world. These innovative, industry-leading companies are the largest buyers, partners, and users of technology solutions for the real estate world. When they adopt a given technology solution, it often becomes the industry standard. Through Pando, our strategic partners are committed to identifying, collaborate with, and investing in the next generation of tech visionaries.

We partner with companies building revolutionary new businesses at the intersection of real estate and technology. Pando structures transformational partnerships between its strategic real estate partners and these emerging disruptive technologies to help them fundamentally reimagine the way humans interact with their physical environment.

Focus on Big Data
We focuses on business models around big data, property and facility management, hospitality management, home services, co-living, co-working, smart home, property search and real-estate agent tools.
The evolution of the workplace is being driven by changing demands and the power of big data. Data is the foundation for evolving real estate, allowing developers to build in flexibility and permitting retail landlords to track shoppers. The data are also driving landlords and office developers to adapt to new trends, such as a focus on wellness, flexible leasing, and meeting the aspirations of millennial workers.
Today’s real estate industry is more dynamic and exciting than ever before. Spurred on by our ever-changing digital landscape, more PropTech companies are taking on real estate to push it to the next level. There are several growing trends in the PropTech market, such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality (VR), big data, and analytics.
In the following years, new technology will provide richer data across the entire real estate cycle, from design and construction phases to facilities management. When combining AR and VR with Computer Aided Design (CAD), and Building Information Modelling (BIM), this will spearhead a new generation of tech-driven real estate assets.
