Zlatan Menkovic, co-founder and CEO of Scaler, says “If you want to have a global impact, there are few better places to start than the real estate industry. Investors are under pressure to decarbonise their portfolios, but to do this effectively they need data, presented and analysed in a way that helps them make the best decisions, for their clients and the world.”
Khaled Helioui, Partner at Plural, says, “Solving the real estate industry’s carbon problem is complex, when north of 60% of carbon emissions in major cities come from buildings and energy use is only increasing. In only a few years, Scaler has built the most compelling software solution in the market to rapidly appraise investors’ ESG scores across their properties and outline concrete strategies to meet net-zero targets.”
