Review :
The Smart Building Advantage is a combination of data-driven insights and witty experiential learnings from Dr. Marson – a must read for anyone designing, investing or operating in real estate. It is a modern day guidebook to untangle the endless PropTech jungle and focus on what is most important – return on investment. I’ve known Matthew for over 10 years and over that time, I’ve quickly come to regard him as a second-to-none global thought-leader on “smart” and “sentient” buildings. Over the years that I’ve known him, he’s taught me a great deal about the wonderful potential that the “smart” built environment can deliver. More precisely, he continues to remind me of the promise of tangible and measurable positive life outcomes that our buildings can deliver for all us. In this book, Matt delivers on that promise. The Smart Building Advantage brings my appreciation of his knowledge of and passion for this topic to an entirely new level. In this powerful treatise, Matt presents a well-constructed argument as to why we should all understand – and dare I say it, “embrace” -- the places that we usually take for granted. This book is masterful story-telling on a topic that we’ve quite simply ignored for way too long. Namely, that the buildings that surround us are increasingly places of technological marvel with the potential to fundamentally transform the human experience in ways that we can only now begin to imagine. If you live, work, or play in any type of building, this is a must read. In the world of computing on the edge and Generated AI, it’s difficult to understand why smart buildings don’t seem to keep pace with technology advances. The Smart Building Advantage provides a comprehensive look at smart buildings – across history, systems, skills, strategy, value and challenges, showcasing complexities which stifle smart building advancement. This book caps off with a proven approach to creating and running a smart building around four key property owner benefits. Well researched and easy to read, this book is a must-have for anyone looking to understand the value of the smart building space. This book demonstrates how smart buildings, through convergence of technology and sustainability, offer unparalleled value by optimizing energy consumption, enhancing occupant comfort and driving operational efficiency. Matthew really combines his two worlds – academic clarity and industry experience. Backed by rigorous research yet crafted for industry allure, it’s your go-to resource for mastering the Smart Building topic. The book seamlessly bridges theory with practice which makes the book also very suitable as an educational tool. This considered and pleasingly pragmatic book addresses the real issues facing everyone who designs, implements, manages, or occupies a smart building. Matthew Marson collects, distils, and applies a healthy dose of reality on current thinking, providing useful recommendations which frankly are essential for the smart building industry to thrive. Matthew is a rare person in the real estate space who combines deep technical knowledge of all things Smart, with on the ground project expertise and an ability to engagingly communicate, without fluff or hyperbole. All of this is packaged in this excellent book which provides a clear expose and roadmap for delivering the best tech enabled real estate. A must read for all forward thinking people designing, delivering and operating buildings. Matthew’s book covers every area of ‘smart buildings’ you need to know and understand. The tells it how it is, and how it should be. The market needs to move and needs education. This book will and should help with those. A lot of knowledge in this book, that you would normally pay a lot of money to get hold of. A great read. Matthew breaks down the complex world of Smart Buildings into bitesize chunks, while weaving together the often competing and synergistic topics of sustainability, value and ever-changing technology in a seamless handbook for property owners everywhere.
