Building the future
We are DREA - Digital Real Estate Association.
Our journey began as the Austrian PropTech Initiative (apti), but with the dynamic development of the real estate industry, we have also evolved. What began as a platform for PropTech start-ups is now a comprehensive network for the digitalization of the entire real estate industry.
Our name DREA stands for more than just change – it symbolizes our evolution towards a diverse ecosystem that unites startups, corporates, SMEs and decision-makers from politics and business. Together, we are driving the digital transformation of the real estate industry and shaping the future.
Through our formats, partnerships and vision, we create connections that change the industry for good. DREA is more than just a name – it is our mission to make innovation, networking and digitalization tangible for all players in the real estate industry.
