Deepki Boosts U.S. Expansion to Address Sustainability in Real Estate
Deepki's Strategic U.S. Expansion: Driving Sustainability and Profitability
Deepki, a frontrunner in sustainability Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions for the real estate sector, is accelerating its presence in the United States. This initiative comes at a pivotal time when sustainability has transitioned from a niche concern to a vital aspect of business strategy. Companies are increasingly realizing that effective sustainability management can significantly influence financial outcomes, compelling sustainability managers to report directly to top financial executives. As a result, Deepki's data-centric solutions are becoming essential tools for businesses aiming to manage risks while enhancing their financial performance.
Building on a Solid Foundation in the U.S.
Deepki’s journey in the U.S. market gained momentum two years ago through a strategic partnership with CBRE, a powerhouse in commercial real estate services and investments. This collaboration has greatly augmented Deepki’s capabilities, helping them secure a considerable share of the American market. The U.S. now stands out as one of the company’s most crucial growth arenas. Their clientele includes high-profile investment managers and global real estate firms such as Kennedy Wilson, Bellwether, and Unico Properties, indicating a growing trust in Deepki’s innovative solutions.
Understanding Market Drivers: Risk and Profitability
A couple of key factors are propelling a heightened demand for Deepki's offerings:
1. Risk Management: As the frequency and severity of climate-related incidents—such as flooding, wildfires, and hurricanes—increases, insurance premiums are skyrocketing. Properties situated in areas vulnerable to such risks, like California and Florida, are facing challenges in securing appropriate coverage, prompting property owners to rethink their resilience strategies.
2. Financial Performance and Efficiency: Asset owners are under increasing pressure to cut costs associated with energy consumption, maintenance, water usage, and waste management. Retrofitting buildings and boosting energy efficiency is emerging as both a sustainable approach and a financially rewarding venture. However, achieving this requires precise, data-driven prioritization of capital expenditures to ensure maximized returns on investment.
Scaling Up Operations: A Local Focus
In response to the growing opportunities in the U.S. real estate market, Deepki is expanding its local operations. The company is increasing its workforce, which currently comprises about a dozen employees stationed in key locations like New York and Seattle. Additionally, Deepki proudly supports nearly fifty of the largest real estate investors globally, a majority of which are based in the U.S. This strategy not only enhances the company’s reach but also provides clients with the tools necessary to improve asset resilience and maximize long-term profitability.
Insights from Leadership
Vincent Bryant, the CEO and Co-founder of Deepki, reflects on the transformation he is witnessing in the industry. He remarks, "As U.S. asset owners aim to reduce risks and maximize returns, we are observing a significant shift—moving from discussions about sustainability to actual implementation. We empower businesses to not only comply with regulations but to also leverage sustainability as a key driver of profit. This has been our focus for the past decade, and it will continue to be as we navigate this evolving landscape."
As Deepki intensifies its operations and solidifies its presence in the U.S. real estate sector, it stands poised to play a critical role in guiding the industry through the complexities of sustainability management, all while enhancing financial viability and performance.
