Real Estate: Influencing Women
|
|
|
IE School of Architecture and Design advocates for the role of women in real estate.
Proof of this commitment is how actively our professors in the Master in Real Estate Development (MRED) participate in different events and articles to support the cause.
Professors Beatriz Corredor and Leticia Ponz are featured in an article published on Idealista about gender parity and how the role of women has changed in the Real Estate sector over recent years. They share their vision of the benefits of women's input in real estate and their desire for actions to break the glass ceiling. You can read what they said here
The Co-Director of MRED and Vice-President of WIRES (Women in Real Estate Spain), Carmen Panadero, regularly participates in events on this subject.
One such event was REWOMEN, a panel that took place in Madrid on April 12, in which Carmen, Silvia López and other women professionals discussed the trends and challenges that women in real estate in Spain are facing today.
We asked our faculty and students about this. See what they said in this video.
