Our take
Commercial real estate is a difficult business sector to plan for, especially for the largest firms managing huge portfolios of prime office space. Marketing, leasing, data analytics and retention efforts have traditionally required an array of different solutions, often poorly integrated with one another (if at all), and decision-making is often stymied by inaccurate reporting and inflexible, clunky tools.
VTS, a leading player in the commercial real estate tech sector, seeks to change this by unifying every real estate asset and function in a single platform. Combining marketing, asset management and reporting functions into a single interface, it also delivers data insights for decision makers to inform their investment and asset strategies.
VTS's user base has grown to over 45,000 commercial real estate firms including Blackstone, Brookfield Properties, and LaSalle Investment Management, and about 60% of the US's top quality office space is managed through its platform. Having raised a significant amount of funding it is investing heavily in research and development, sourcing strategic acquisitions and hiring additional talent.
