In this episode, we are joined by, Rob Asher, CEO of Giraffe, an early-stage real estate development platform that accelerates finding, assessing, and developing sites. In this conversation, we discuss Co-Design, its process, potential benefits for cities and communities, how Giraffe can facilitate the implementation of co-design, and much more.

Rob sits at the intersection of real estate development and technology. As CEO of Giraffe, he is the driving force behind ensuring cities’ digital transformations are built on a foundation of ensuring ideas are rooted in the interests of the people that live there.
