Founder Series #5 ft. Dan Drogman: "The idea is the easy part. Execution is what matters"

Welcome to the fifth episode of the PropTech Talks - Founder Series. In this episode, I interviewed Dan Drogman, Founder & CEO at Smart Spaces.

Smart Spaces is a pioneering smart building operating system deployed across 85 million square feet in 26 countries. With a background in technology and graphic design, Dan Drogman initially honed his skills through various tech ventures. In 2009, Dan joined forces with his brother Tom to build a business that would eventually evolve into Smart Spaces. The business was built without the support of an external investor, and has now grown to become the leader in the space that, powered by a 70-person team, is setting a new standard for tenant experience, landlord-occupant communication, actionable data, and sustainability in the built world.

Tune into this session to gain insights into Dan's journey building and growing a profitable tech company, identifying a high-potential market, building a product that responds to customer needs, effective strategies to drive actual change in consumer behaviour, and much more!

Interviews with inspiring Founders, Investors, and Real Estate Executives will be shared weekly on this podcast series - follow the PropTech Talks interview series and stay tuned!
