The Edge Magazine Vol. 6

Charging on with resilience, relevance and readiness.

This goes without saying, but no one has been immune to the challenges of the global pandemic, its subsequent economic fallout, ongoing geopolitical conflicts—or any number of other uncertainties that seem to come at us daily. Across the globe, we’ve all had to adapt in both our professional and personal lives. But through it all, Cushman & Wakefield remains committed to our people, our clients, our partners and our industry friends, ensuring they have access to the tools, data, thinking and insights to feel confident in a turbulent time. While significant challenges remain, we feel increasingly confident about the role our industry will play in the continued evolution of the built environment and its impact on society. This conviction is not in spite of great change but because our industry and its participants continue to demonstrate tremendous resiliency, innovation and readiness in the face of great change. In this volume of The Edge Magazine, we feature stories that underscore our optimism and the kinds of innovation and adaptation shaping the future. We look at how real estate investors can capitalize on ESG to create long-term value, and why it’s important for the multifamily sector to keep Generation Z’s preferences in mind. We also touch on the transition digitally native retailers are expanding to brick- and-mortar locations, why commercial drones are more prevalent than you may think and more. More change and challenges will come our way, but no doubt our industry will meet them head on. And as we move deeper into 2022, we look forward to sharing additional stories in Volume 7 that feature great imagination, resilience and thinking. We encourage you to subscribe to receive the latest.
