PropDen Event: Invest in Proptech with guest speakers & pitches from Revvis, Homey & EAN

This evening, March 16th, proptech investors will be descending on Scale Space in White City, London to hear from a couple of ambitious start-ups, both of which will be seeking investment for their cutting-edge work in the proptech space.

The headline guest speaker at the event will be Christopher Walkey, the founder of Estate Agent Networking and a pioneer of the property technology scene years before it became trendy to talk about the digital transformation of real estate.

More than half a decade ago, Walkey was putting together conferences and trade shows with a view to pull together property practitioners and businesses who were desperate to solve problems digitally. Walkey is steeped in both property and proptech, so he’s sure to deliver something interesting.

The two companies pitching for investment are Revvis and Homey. Vedran Radovic, the CEO of Revvis, has flown in especially for the event and Homey, founded by Dr Sayinthen Vivekantham, will also be present.

I know Revvis very well as they are a client of mine, so the best way to describe them is the next stage of Matterport, as Revvis virtualises the unbuilt property asset. For example, new home developers or commercial real estate practitioners can market their inventory, fully realised, before it is even constructed.

While Matterport allows for interplay with an already existing structure, with Revvis you can digitally “walk” around it and make changes to the asset. This makes the whole experience more contemporary than other offerings out there, bringing real estate 3D visualisations comprehensively in line with the current Metaverse, virtual reality and augmented reality trends.

Behind Homey is a team of experts in software, design and real estate, each of whom feel the way you buy/sell your home is outdated. Because of this, they are overhauling and reimagining this process through technology. Having been backed by some of the UK’s best minds, Homey are creating a digital solution to this problem, so everyone can benefit from buying or selling a home faster, more easily and with certainty.

If you are an interested investor, the event is invite-only.
