Keynote: BOMEX 2013, Halifax – The Future of Retail and the Intelligent Building
Jim Carroll delivered the keynote address to approximately 300 delegates at BOMEX 2013 — the annual conference of the Building Owners and Managers Association of Canada — held in Halifax, Nova Scotia in October 2013. The talk explored two converging trends that Carroll argued would fundamentally reshape the commercial real estate sector: the radical transformation of retail (and with it, the nature of retail space) and the emergence of intelligent, connected, aware building technology. Carroll challenged building owners and managers to think not just about what their spaces looked like today, but about what retail, office, and mixed-use environments would need to deliver by 2020 as same-day delivery, showrooming, and digital-physical integration redefined what drew people into physical spaces. The session generated significant industry press coverage, with Property Biz Canada featuring Carroll’s predictions about the dramatic changes coming to the built environment.
