Will PropTech make all Facilities Managers redundant?
PropTech has had a huge impact on the property world and it seems to be growing in importance almost daily. James will give you a complete overview of the sector and challenge you to think about your own futures and whether there is an actual career in Facilities Management moving forward. It promises to be a contentious speech but will help you shape the future of the industry at the very least.
I work as Senior Manager at Tenant & Partner with focus on business development and strategic workplace advisory. I have a long exciting workplace background after working within both the physical and digital workplace areas. I have been part of IFMA for many years and worked for both WE (Workplace Evolutionaries) since the beginning, and also the IFMA Sweden chapter in the board of IFMA Sweden. Within WE I have a few different roles - I am part of the Strategic Advisory Group and Leadership team, and have the lead role for our WE Hubs and Hub expansion worldwide. Before joining Tenant & Partner, I have worked as Sr Modern Workplace Solution Specialist, Group Innovation Manager, Acting and Deputy Head of Group Service Development, Strategic Change Manager, Site Manager and Department Manager at companies like Microsoft, Coor, Skanska and Pharmacia.

About me
I've been a facility manager for NHPCO for the past 10 years where my role has grown and changed with the needs of my organization. My company is dedicated to ensuring that everyone have education about and access to the best person-centered care that humankind has to offer at the time when it is needed. Both of my parents received hospice care at the end of each of their lives, and the lasting impression it left on me inspired me to dedicate a large portion of my professional life to make certain other families had experiences like my own. My role is far removed from the bedside, but I do my part to support the NHPCO staff who in turn do their work to support those in the field and at bedsides.
I am a member of IFMA, currently serve as VP Professional Development for IFMA Capital Chapter in Washington DC, and am also a member of the Workplace Evolutionaries (WE) community.
This is my first time to Europe and thusly Amsterdam as well. I very much look forward to making some new connections, learning togethe
