The National Association of REALTORS® has announced the evolution of its Innovation, Opportunity & Investment (iOi) initiative, shifting from an annual summit into a continuous engagement platform designed to empower real estate professionals with tools, insights and networking opportunities.
Instead of a once-a-year event, iOi is now a year-round collective for real estate technology and innovation, providing NAR members, PropTech founders, investors and technology leaders with ongoing access to industry-shaping insights and connections, a press release stated. Through real-time updates, in-person PropTech meetups, webinars, a dedicated tech blog and curated programming at NAR’s major conferences, iOi is fostering deeper engagement and collaboration across the real estate ecosystem, NAR noted.
“The new iOi collective’s overarching goal is to expand the community and drive innovation by bringing together real estate professionals and technology leaders,” said Dan Weisman, NAR director of innovation strategy. “Technology is reshaping real estate faster than ever, and iOi is evolving to meet the industry’s needs.”
