This prestigious event will bring together some of the biggest names in the industry for three days of discussions, networking, and learning.<\/p><p>As part of this year&#8217;s Congress, Bueno is proud to lead a masterclass on <strong>&#8220;Enhancing Property Value Through Analytics and Optimisation&#8221;<\/strong>. This session will delve into the critical role that building analytics and optimisation play in maintaining and enhancing building performance in the post-COVID era.<\/p><h2>Key Focus Areas of the Masterclass:<\/h2><ul><li><p><strong>Tenant Comfort &amp; Retention:<\/strong> With more employees returning to the office, ensuring a comfortable, healthy, and energy-efficient environment is essential. Analytics and optimisation tools can improve tenant satisfaction and retention, making buildings more attractive and valuable.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Prioritising Capital Projects with Data:<\/strong> Utilising data from building systems can help owners and managers identify where to allocate capital for projects that will have the most significant long-term impact. This strategic approach is key in reducing future operating costs and improving portfolio performance.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Reducing Operating Costs:<\/strong> Through advanced analytics, building owners and operators can identify inefficiencies and opportunities for cost-saving measures in energy consumption, maintenance, and overall operations, ensuring peak performance at a reduced cost.<\/p><\/li><\/ul><p><strong>Why This Masterclass Matters:<\/strong> The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the property industry is undeniable. Lower occupancy rates during the pandemic resulted in decreased energy consumption, and many owners enjoyed a temporary reprieve from high operating costs. However, as buildings fill back up, energy use is expected to rise sharply, putting pressure on building performance metrics and asset values.<\/p><p><strong>Building Optimisation<\/strong> is a powerful tool for addressing these challenges, but it remains widely misunderstood and underutilised in the industry. This session, featuring <strong>Hugh Amoyal<\/strong>, Global CEO of Bueno, and <strong>Varun Nair<\/strong>, General Manager of Asset Management at Scentre Group, will shed light on what \u201ctrue\u201d building optimisation looks like and how it can drive performance improvements in the new post-pandemic era.<\/p><h2>Attendees will gain insight into:<\/h2><ul><li>How to leverage building and asset data for smarter decision-making<\/li><li>Ways to improve NABERS ratings and other critical performance metrics<\/li><li>Strategies for enhancing overall property value by optimising building operations<\/li><\/ul><h2>Session Details:<\/h2><ul><li><strong>Date:<\/strong> 23 October 2024<\/li><li><strong>Time:<\/strong> 1:00 PM &#8211; 2:30 PM AEST<\/li><li><strong>Location:<\/strong> The Ville Resort Townsville, Sir Leslie Thiess Drive, Townsville, QLD 4810, Australia<\/li><li><strong>Tickets:<\/strong> $100 for members, $150 for non-members<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-28fcb74 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"28fcb74\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Speakers<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a15c11 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"0a15c11\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3bd1ebb e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"3bd1ebb\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8560776 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8560776\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/buenoanalytics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2024\/11\/Hugh-Amoyal.jpg.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1840\" alt=\"Hugh Amoyal Bueno Analytics\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buenoanalytics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2024\/11\/Hugh-Amoyal.jpg.webp 400w, https:\/\/buenoanalytics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2024\/11\/Hugh-Amoyal-300x300.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/buenoanalytics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2024\/11\/Hugh-Amoyal-150x150.jpg.webp 150w, https:\/\/buenoanalytics.com\/wp-content\/smush-webp\/2024\/11\/Hugh-Amoyal-12x12.jpg.webp 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" title=\"Bueno Analytics\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76c2df9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"76c2df9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b5c41e8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b5c41e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Hugh Amoyal<\/h6>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f6679c6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f6679c6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Leon WurfelaGlobal Chief Executive Officer, Bueno<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f865217 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f865217\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Hugh Amoyal is the Global CEO of Bueno Analytics, a leading smart building data analytics platform that focuses on decarbonising the built environment.
