Tune in for an enlightening conversation with Chris Pyke, the Chief Innovation Officer at GRESB (Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark). This episode delves into Chris's journey from environmental science to becoming a leading figure in real estate sustainability.

Discover the origins of GRESB, an initiative that began as academic research at Maastricht University and learn how it has evolved into a global benchmark for real estate sustainability. With the support of 145 institutional investors managing $7 trillion in assets, GRESB plays a crucial role in the industry today.

Explore how GRESB has transformed sustainability communication in real estate, transitioning from vague reports to transparent, benchmarkable metrics that combat greenwashing and offer a reliable platform for sustainability assessment.

Chris discusses innovative approaches and case studies like Barangaroo in Sydney, highlighting strategies for improving underperforming assets.

Examine the broadening engagement with the capital stack in real estate investments, including the resurgence of private lenders and the integration of ESG factors. Chris emphasises the importance of financial performance transparency and the role of partnerships with institutions like Maastricht and MIT Centre for Real Estate.
