Having the PropTech StartUp & Scale-up Europe Awards 2022 as the starting point of this alliance, the Association will rely on the 50K Tech startups community provided by the Finnovating platform, to invite their entire PropTech community to participate. Promoted and supported by the European Commission and implemented by the Association and the Finnova Foundation, this 4th edition of the prestigious awards, aim to reinforce the innovation focus of the European real estate corporations. 

Rodrigo García de la Cruz, CEO at Finnovating, explains that “The PropTech sector is growing exponentially due the demands of digital transformation in the Real Estate sector. At Finnovating, as a global B2B platform, we provide effective solutions to support the innovative revolution that is taking place by digitally connecting PropTechs with corporations that demand this inevitable change. For that reason, partnering with the European PropTech Association and providing our platform as a space where our PropTech members have the opportunity to participate in such prestigious awards is an incredible opportunity”.  

Dirk Paelinck, Chairman of the European Proptech Association: “It’s a life-changing event for us to collaborate with Finnovating for them to help us accelerate the impact and span of the European PropTech market. The European PropTech Association aims to create a positive impact on the European living environment and the Finnovating platform is the perfect partner to foster innovation in the Real Estate sector by encouraging innovation and digital transformation within the PropTech ecosystem”. 

Focusing all efforts in supporting a sustainable PropTech market, the partnership between the European PropTech Association and Finnovating is a major breakthrough for the PropTech StartUps and Scale-ups that operate in Europe. The synergy between the platform’s digital transformation and innovation value, and the European PropTech Association’s target towards scaling cross-border collaborations, standardizing the European PropTech markets, creating legal frameworks and facilitating access to funding, presents a great opportunity for the Real Estate sector.
