To explore the answers to this question, with a focus on the European real estate market, WiredScore is hosting The WiredScore Future Forum on Tuesday 23rd November.


WiredScore is the organization behind the WiredScore and SmartScore certifications: the internationally recognized digital connectivity and smart building rating systems for real estate, helping landlords design and promote buildings with powerful digital connectivity and smart capabilities.

WiredScore was founded in New York in 2013 by leaders in real estate, technology and telecommunications, with an endorsement from Mayor Bloomberg, to improve the city’s technology infrastructure, and support its entrepreneurs who are driving technological advances and creating jobs.

Following success in the US, WiredScore launched in the United Kingdom in October 2015 after winning the Greater London Authority’s tender to be the official Mayor of London Digital Connectivity Rating Scheme. International demand for the digital connectivity rating system has since seen the company expand operations to France, Ireland, Germany, and Canada. Since then, over 70 million sqm of commercial and residential space has been committed to WiredScore certification, impacting 7 million people across 12 countries.

Technology is critical to the way in which we live, work and connect. The last two years have meant that it’s now essential that the buildings we both inhabit and work within are digitally-connected, smart spaces, able to accommodate our technologically advanced way of life.

WiredScore’s mission is to make the world’s buildings smarter and better connected, to enable a more dynamic, collaborative and innovative future. But we must ask ourselves: how can real estate remain relevant in the tech-centric age? To explore the answers to this question, with a focus on the European real estate market, WiredScore is hosting The WiredScore Future Forum on Tuesday 23rd November, and you’re invited.
