2023 has been a complicated year for the investment real estate sector. The market is in crisis. Transactions have come to a standstill and investors are left holding their assets. Nevertheless, the challenge of decarbonizing existing buildings remains unavoidable. In this context, iQspot has found its place on the market and has been able to grow economically and humanly.
Lessons from 2023
iQspot has risen to the challenge of scaling up:
- Our historical clients such as Inéa, La Française REM and BNP Paribas REIM have renewed their trust and we have continued to develop alongside them (learn more),
- We have continued to have a large-scale impact on the consumption of equipped buildings (for example -16% on the equipped stock of La Française REM and -26% on that of BNP Paribas REIM),
- We are developing commercially by supporting 13 new clients from the world of investment real estate,
All this has led to a nice increase in our turnover of more than 70%.
To support this growth and maintain our level of impact for our clients, we have continued to strengthen our team by recruiting a dozen people.
Today, decarbonizing existing real estate has become an obvious and essential issue in our market. By providing a simple, effective and CAPEX-free response to this key market issue, we are becoming increasingly recognized in this market.
Our ambition
We want to become the reference solution for decarbonizing existing commercial real estate without work while retaining our DNA:
- Putting people at the center of decarbonization,
- Proposing a tailor-made solution for each of our customers in order to best meet their challenges.
To do this, we want to continue to deploy our solution on an ever larger scale while maintaining our impact and customer satisfaction. On the product side, we seek to provide ever more reliable data while continuing to innovate and improve the product to support our customers in their future challenges related to the decarbonization of their buildings.
And tomorrow?
With the first deadline of the Tertiary Decree approaching (2030), real estate investors are increasingly listening to decarbonization solutions because they will soon have no choice but to act. The closer this deadline gets, the more there will be a bonus for real estate players committed to a clear and effective decarbonization strategy. Conversely, others will struggle to align with the regulations and risk seeing the value of their buildings quickly depreciate.
2030 will allow us to take stock of the impact of these regulations on the energy consumption of tertiary real estate. The objectives are very ambitious and may not always be achieved. But even if they are not achieved, they will at least allow actions to be initiated by players with little or no commitment who would certainly never have acted without these regulatory obligations.
2030 is tomorrow, but let’s act now!
