Evan Hodges noted.  #BLOCKCHAIN IMPACTING #CRE - "It [was] only a matter of time before blockchain began to infiltrate industries all around the world - even historically-traditional industries are not immune to the disruption, Commercial Real Estate included, for:  smarter and more transparent TRANSACTIONS,  faster LIQUIDITY and land TITLE recording:" (edited) - Lnkd.in/efTuTfP

Kirk Borne.  FACILITATE PROACTIVE #CYBERSECURITY OPERATIONS - "#BIGDATA #ANALYTICS, #MACHINEINTELLIGENCE and #AI are the soul of our digital revolution, especially in cybersecurity operations.  #Data quantity and complexity has skyrocketed due to the exploding #IoT, operational technologies (#OT) and and interconnected global economy.  The ability to extract meaningful signals about potentially nefarious activities, and ultimately deter those activities, has become increasingly complex due to the dynamic nature of computer networks, sophisticated adversaries and network vulnerabilities.   There is hope for making meaningful progress."  Free 50pp eBook.  #Technology #DeepLearning #Analysis #Business (edited) Lnkd.in/e2dFU9t

Gartner. EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES #HYPECYCLES (#AI #AR #AutonomousVehicles #Blockchain #CyberSecurity #DataScience #IoT #4Dprinting #Robotics #Startup #VR; edited; more next week - Lnkd.in/e4DyuHa) - "Innovation Trigger, Peak of Inflated Expections, Trough of Disillusionment, on to Plateau of Productivity, indicated in <2 to 10+ years."

Don Catalano. #TECHNOLOGY TRENDS IMPACTING #CRE (#AI #Business #Data #PropTech #Expansion #Startup; edited - Lnkd.in/e6K_MEA):

• "#AR/#VR has advanced to a point where it can enter the mainstream business world: VR's impacting office design, more virtual meeting scenarios, marketing leases and purchase; AR's still finding its way with the potential to revolutionize building management and maintenance, enabling techs to see the status of systems as they walk through buildings.

• "#DRONES are now a requirement. Their video is something that tenants and purchasers can demand to help them gain a quick overview of properties. Managers will continue finding new ways to use drones to help them inspect and manage commercial real estate buildings."

• #IoT has significantly advanced in the robustness of the technology. 2018 is the year for more owners and users integrate #IoT into their management systems, bringing increased building efficiency, better maintenance and improved tenant experiences.

• "#BIGDATA powers IoT via sensors and Big Data's mining and #analysis tools, gaining further use along with IoT adoption in 2018."

• "#AI killer apps are 2018's likely biggest #IoT innovation, and blended with IoT/#BigData repositories allows CRE users to know issues, be given solutions and have technicians dispatched.

• "#BLOCKCHAIN is a secure #DigitalLedger of transactions, and is already being tested as a replacement for real estate title systems," contracts and purchasing.

Enrique Dans. #INTERNET, #GEOPOLITICS ... THE #FUTURE - "#Alphabet Exec Chair, Eric Schmidt, is predicting an Internet divided into 2 independent networks managed by the United States and China [and maybe a 3rd by the EU], but that division is already in existence." Sad, since it could impede #blockchain's promise of collaborative international commerce, as well as robust collaboration between #businesses, #STEM professionals and the #humanities that probably keeps us from #WWIII. #Technology (edited) Schmidt: Lnkd.in/eQmazsz Dans: Lnkd.in/eP3JbvZ

Commercial Real Estate, Technology, Blockchain and AI

Kirk Borne.  WAYS TO HARNESS #BIGDATA IN #ENERGY (#Technology #AI #MachineLearning #Analysis #Business #Data #Expansion #OilGas; edited - Lnkd.in/esWSnsz):

• "The big change in every industry is the sensoring - on just about everything, including electricity, Oil Gas, supply chain, #Manufacturing and even customer interaction.  This is Big Data - more "big value" than "big volume" - with all this information, we can put our systems to better use making greater value.

• "A PRESCRIPTIVE MODEL is one method to gain much greater insight in the energy industry for predicting then prescribing optimal outcomes.  By collecting enough data from factors such as the environment, devices used, and contextual information such as weather patterns or energy usage - user parameters are set to prevent interruptions or disasters. [For instance,] "if a bad outcome is upcoming, conditions can be set to prevent machine failure - reducing the operating temperature or speed, or increasing the frequency of on/off cycles."  

• "DIGITAL TWINS.  An exciting proposition for the #INDUSTRIAL SECTOR is the digital twin, a full Computer-Aided Design (#CAD) model of any device that can be run alongside its original to track behaviour and identify the cause of any failures.  In the energy industry, this could be a digital replica of an offshore wind turbine, monitoring power usage, production and efficiencies, and replaying any anomalies to identify their cause." 

• "#CROWDSOURCING.   At NASA, we put mountains of image #data online to create an interesting challenge, people across the world volunteered their time creating incredible results.   A Netherlander discovered a strange green object while looking through images - an entirely new type of astronomical object (Hanny's Voorwerp).   For the #energy sector, have people look at data around blackouts, establishing a pattern to outages or surviving locations for shelters."

• "MOVE BEYOND REPORTING.  Big data allows executives to look at all aspects of their business, and quarterly reporting is not frequent enough.  BD deals with events - hindsight, oversight and foresight - using prescriptive modelling.  Global energy is undergoing huge change, requiring that forward-looking view of the rich information embedded within our big data reservoirs."

• WRAP UP.  "The energy industry can benefit from these four approaches as ways to manage the digital disruption and the flood of new data coming from sensors everywhere. What we really need are solutions that can help your business move at the speed of your data!  (Certain products or methodologies to help #data #analytics move at the speed of #business is not a viable approach.)"  

Pedro Uria-Recio.  MISTAKES CORPORATES MAKE IN THEIR ADVANCED #ANALYTICS PROGRAMS - "TOP 25 come under the categories [apply to many areas in companies]:  #Strategy, People. Execution, #Technology and #Finance. ... Raise your hand if your company is making FEWER than 15 ... I have to say that I have made some of these very mistakes myself."  #Analysis #Business #Data (edited; see article for details)  Lnkd.in/e78WPx3

Ian Vaughan, P.G. via Cris Wright, P.E.: "NantEnergy has made some new and exceptional claims about its latest ZINC-AIR #BATTERIES:  they can be reliably recharged thousands of times, the tech can be extended to [vehicles] in the future, and they already clear the $100/kwh #manufacturing-cost barrier - right now, in 2018!" (edited) Lnkd.in/dKVG2vs

Cris Wright, P.E. and Stephen Crockett for sharing Enrique Dans. After all the bad said about TESLA, CEO Elon Musk, "understands that people want to be part of a project that is not about selling cars, but changing the world, by designing and implementing long-term strategies, even in the face of baseless nonsense from people   There are many years of hard work behind Tesla’s overnight success.

"This quarter, Tesla not only made tons of money, boosting its share price, but also fulfilled its production and distribution objectives, showing every sign of staying in the black, at least until it has to pay interest on loans in the first quarter of next year.  The world would be a better place with a few more crazy people like him in positions of leadership." #Manufacturing #Technology (edited) Lnkd.in/ecWC43D

BUSINESS and COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE GOLDEN NUGGETS - OCTOBER 22-26

Commercial Real Estate (CRE), Technology and AI

Xiaorong Yang.  OVERSTOCK.COM #VC FIRM INVESTS $6 MILLION IN #BLOCKCHAIN - "Overstock’s founder, CEO Bill Ottman, is a firm advocate for blockchain, having launched Medici Ventures in order to help advance distributed ledger technology worldwide as a means to connect the world without transactional middlemen in an era of trust through technology." #Fintech #Technology (edited; picture from Pexels.com - Lnkd.in/eTXUETq

Michael Beckerman. SINGLE-SOURCE PLATFORM WILL WIN #CRE #TECH RACE. "In the larger-tech landscape, only a few companies dominate - CRE Tech will happen faster. The industries’ CRE professionals simply have no room or time to use multiple tech products for multiple job functions. A handful will emerge with this concept built out because they have the resources, leadership and strategy to get it done." #AI #PropTech (edited - Lnkd.in/emxepRC

Pedro Uria-Recio. MACHINE LEARNING 4 CEOS (#Technology #AI #MachineLearning #NeuralNetworks #Analysis #Data #Research, edited; continued from last week - Lnkd.in/gEsErZg):

• Last week: A CEO'S JOB; SUPERVISED and UNSUPERVISED LEARNING. 

• "REINFORCEMENT LEARNING algorithms learn to perform a task simply by doing it, trying to maximize a reward, knowing the current state and the goal, the list of allowable actions and the constraints, and the reward system. Applications include optimizing a trading strategy or a real-time pricing approach, and managing managing exceptions caused by storms in the maritime industry."

• "CONCLUSION. Machines can be exceptionally good, sometimes far better than humans, doing very specific tasks, but this does not mean a computer can 'understand' what it is working with, how that develops or how to control it ... at least not yet. Humans and AI algorithms will collaborate together, instilling a data-driven culture, and requiring Top Management to understand the basics of the technologies and learn from data." 

Diego Lo Giudice of Forrester Research.  WILL #AI DO PROGRAMMING SOON? (#Technology #DeepLearning #Analysis #Business #Expansion #Startup, edited - Lnkd.in/dPKgYHv):

• "There are programs that can generate other programs, but what about AI programming from a business requirement defined in natural language?  Maybe not very soon, but AI can improve development [see examples], and make programmers more productive and creative - which will them save their jobs," and make companies much more competitive.

• "I surveyed more than 25 software vendors and system integrators/consulting organizations and a dozen or more experts in software companies about their near-future plans for leveraging AI to improve the way they build and test software. 

• "Our interviewees saw testing as the most popular phase to apply AI, as quality is of paramount importance in the age of digital acceleration.

• "In my recent trip to India, Infosys, Wipro, TCS and IBM GBS shared interesting client case studies, and other GSIs have shown me some early accelerators."

Eric Crabb and QSI Facilities. REAL-TIME ALERTS ENABLE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AND PROFITABILITY (#CRE #Technology #Analysis #PropTech #Investment, edited - Lnkd.in/eWMembQ):

• "Proactive, preventative maintenance is about more than just changing filters and checking out your equipment. It uses technology and the IoT to track and manage the systems in your building."

• "BEGIN REAL-TIME ALERTS / REPORTING NOW. Gather and compile #data from day one, including pictures of the installation to provide a real-time view of the system’s implementation. This ensures the system is functioning correctly, immediately proving its capacity to provide an #ROI."

• "IMMEDIATE ISSUE IDENTIFICATION, RESPONSE AND RESOLUTION ensure technicians perform the right repair the first time.  In 'reactionary maintenance' a technician is dispatched to identify an issue and make repairs. When connected to the #IoT, issues are identified automatically, triggering an ALERT.  Facility managers can now ensure technicians are on site ASAP, complete the repair, and log the repair to provide additional coaching to the technician if needed."

• "ACCURATE BUDGETS, REDUCED MAINTENANCE COST AND BETTER CAPITAL PLANNING.  Since the system tracks operating time, facility managers can define budgets with greater precision, not just based on historical data, which may help you gain executive-level support for implementation."

• "You need QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS, and guidance through appropriate actions and steps to take in the event of an issue.

• "IMMEDIATE ACTION prevents an issue from spreading, such as higher energy usage in one system when a cooling system fails.

• "ENSURE YOUR PEACE OF MIND. Proactive, preventative maintenance uses technology and #IoT to track and manage the systems in your building." 

• How about large phones and tablets with an #AI App on a property for maintenance and new installations to coordinate, operate, enhance and PROTECT the #IoT and CRE technology?

Commercial Real Estate (CRE) and Business

Eli Sabatier via Peter Reiss II. MAIN #CYBERSECURITY THREATS TO YOUR NETWORKS (#Technology, #NetworkSecurity, edited; continued from last week - Lnkd.in/e9Svyww):

• Last week:  INSIDER / OUTSIDER THREATS and EFFECTIVE DEFENSE.

• "Network security professionals have to devote significant resources to EVALUATING cybersecurity threats, which if left unchecked could trigger costly data breaches. Proactive defenses are tailored to stop advanced threats before they can exploit the many possible attack surfaces and settle into the network."

• "MULTIFACETED CYBERSECURITY SOLUTIONS mitigate common risks.  Many attacks leverage a key weakness in the targeted IT infrastructure - phishing attack or an app / network gear only using a default password.  Modern platforms combat with: (1) multifactor authentication, (2) context-aware analytics and automated engines (with human overseers) and (3) overall structure with threat defense through proactive identification.  They are useful against advanced persistent threats, ransomware and DDoS schemes."

Sam Garner. TIPS TO SKYROCKET BUSINESS (#Business #Leadership, edited - Lnkd.in/eQMdTDE):

• "'TRUST your people and they will prove themselves trustworthy' - give them an A to Z section of the job then let 'em do their thing. 

• "CONNECTION. A simple 'good morning' or 'how’s everything' can go a long way. Eliminate friction between your staff, and you care about them and their problems. 

• "Take the INITIATIVE and surprise your staff! Break the routines, you'er one of them and they can connect. Eat and laugh togther."
