Co-Chairs:

Bill Sechen, Chief Information Officer, Harrison Street Asset Management
Lior Wolf, Director, Data & AI, Prime Finance

NAREIM:

IvyLee Rosario, Head of Programs

9:10am Attendee Introductions
To help facilitate connections, each attendee will be invited to briefly introduce themselves by stating their name and firm.

9:15am Windy City Chat
The Windy City Chat brings together senior technology leaders from across the real estate investment industry for a dynamic and interactive fireside chat. The agenda is driven by the audience, with attendees voting at the start of the session to prioritize the topics they want to explore.

Speakers:

Bill Sechen, Chief Information Officer, Harrison Street Asset Management
Sach Diwan, Chief Information Officer, Heitman
Dipesh Shah, Chief Technology Officer, Stockbridge

10:15am Break

10:30am Your Data Strategy IS Your AI Strategy
Most firms are running an AI strategy and a data strategy as if they are two different things. They are not. This session reframes AI readiness as a data discipline, walks through the three investments that make AI compound rather than stall, and leaves every attendee with a diagnostic they can apply the next day.

Session Leaders:

Marquis Onorato, Vice President, Finance, Dermody
Majoni Maumbe, Head of Data Analytics & Architecture, Global, Harrison Street Asset Management
Lior Wolf, Director, Data & AI, Prime Finance

11:30am Break

11:45am Build vs. Buy: A Practical Framework for Technology Decisions
As real estate investment firms modernize their data and technology platforms, one question continues to arise: when does it make sense to build a custom solution, and when is it better to buy? In this interactive session, participants will explore a practical framework for evaluating build, buy, and hybrid approaches. Through a real-world case study and facilitated small-group discussion, attendees will compare experiences, examine key decision criteria, and leave with actionable insights to guide future technology investments.

Speakers:

Andrew Ryan, Chief Information Officer, Harbert Management Corporation
Meina Zhi, Senior Vice President, Business Applications, PCCP
Dipesh Shah, Chief Technology Officer, Stockbridge

12:45pm Lunch

1:45pm Data Governance, Standardization & Control

Session Leaders:

Larry Maya, Senior Vice President, Data Strategy & Analytics, Affinius Capital
Sach Diwan, Chief Information Officer, Heitman
Chris Kersten, Senior Vice President, Business Intelligence & Reporting, Waterton

2:45pm Break

3:00pm Operational Efficiency & Business Adoption
What would your firm look like if status meetings, update emails and manual project tracking largely disappeared? This session will examine how integrated AI can fundamentally reshape the real estate management operating model - challenging participants to identify what work their firms can eliminate and where that newly created capacity can generate the most value.

Session Leaders:

Cole McCall, Senior Director, Technology Investments, Asana Partners
John Yamane, Senior Vice President, Accounting & Finance, Belay Investment Group

4:00pm Meeting Adjourns
