November 7th to 11th, 2022
WealthPark is hosting an event at an international conference on the theme of "Connect Value" to create value by connecting Japanese and U.S. PropTech companies with each other.
Join us to find out the global major trends of real estate technology!
“NYC Real Estate Tech Week” is the world’s largest real estate tech conference held in New York, USA every year in early November, with panel discussions and exhibitions featuring the real estate sector outlook and latest real estate tech trends over the course of a week.
In 2018 and 2019, WealthPark participated in this conference and hosted an event named “WealthPark NYC”. Under the theme of 'Connect Value', we invited leading Japanese and U.S. real estate companies, real estate tech companies, financial institutions, and investors to participate in the event, where they were able to learn and feel how the real estate industry is changing through attending a variety of presentations and sharing sessions. Our goal has been to create new value by connecting all industry participants with each other.
As life is slowly returning to pre-pandemic normal, we are happy to announce “WealthPark NYC 2022” to be held this year after a two-year break. In addition to our one-day event, participants will also be able to attend a variety of events hosted by “NYC Real Estate Tech Week”, as well as networking opportunities with local companies and business tours to experience the global alternative asset trends.
We sincerely look forward to meeting you all in New York.

If you have already been vaccinated, you must travel with a Certificate of Vaccination to be submitted to the airline prior to departure from the U.S..
