Reinventing the Digital Front Door: Modernizing Enterprise Property Discovery with AI Search at Phillips Edison & Company

In commercial real estate, connecting prospective tenants and brokers with the right retail space drives leasing velocity. Yet for decades, digital property discovery has been constrained by rigid drop-down menus and static parameter filters that force users to translate complex business needs into computer fields. To bridge this gap, Phillips Edison & Company (Nasdaq: PECO) partnered with CoStrategix to engineer a next-generation AI-powered property discovery platform. This session unpacks the journey behind PECO’s award-winning platform.
