What person, project, transaction or market trend had the greatest impact on your industry this year? An increased number of buyers and renters in NYC want their homes and buildings to support a modern, healthy lifestyle – spaces for exercise, connection to nature, workspace outside of their residence, technologies implemented throughout. This positively impacts my work, as conscious design and integrating technology are fundamental to my development process.

What was your greatest professional accomplishment or most notable project, deal, or transaction in 2022? The mid-market, commercial and multifamily sectors are stagnant due to a resistance to integrating technology, so I launched ANAX Real Estate Partners, an NYC-based construction and development company, and ANAX Ventures, an early-stage proptech fund, to unite two normally disparate aspects of real estate – construction and technology.

How has your career path changed in 2022? In 2022 I focused on effectively integrating new technologies into upcoming innovative developments constructed by ANAX Real Estate Partners. This is made possible by ANAX Ventures and the PropTech and ConTech companies we invest in. We actively work to identify these nascent innovations through my podcast, “Real Tech Talk with Eric Brody.”
