Matterport Secure Service Excellence Award at 2020 UK Proptech Awards

The prestigious award recognises a product or service which streamlines, simplifies or improves a user experience for the end customer. 

Wednesday 18 November marked the 2020 UK PropTech Awards: an evening dedicated to the recognition of talent and innovation across the real estate technology sector. The virtual event, which was hosted by UKPA chairman Matt Partridge to an audience of five hundred attendees, brought nominees together across sixteen award categories to celebrate the many investors and pioneers of property technology currently operating within the industry. 

Adapt. Innovate. Overcome. 

Due to the global implications of Covid-19, the ceremony took on a particular significance this year as we witnessed companies adapt and innovate their technology to overcome the many challenges presented by the pandemic. With a heightened need for data-driven solutions and forward-thinking data technology setting the precedent for 2020, the awards offered recognition for those striving to ensure a safe, sustainable sector able to withstand a future of uncertainty.

The reputable Service Excellence Award, presented by Scott Cations on behalf Altus Group, acknowledges companies that have successfully developed a product or service that simplifies, streamlines or improves an experience for the end user while exceeding customer expectations. 

As industry leaders in 3D capture technology and spatial data, Matterport are thrilled to receive this award for highlighting the previously unforeseen benefits of digitally transforming your space. 
 

Creating Certainty In Uncertain Times

In a time when in-person walkthroughs are not possible, Matterport’s technology makes it easy to create immersive 3D digital twins for back-to-work planning, listing or appraising properties, documenting makeover projects, and much more. The ability to capture space in this ground-breaking way allows our users to visualise environments they have yet to experience in person,  providing peace of mind and a semblance of certainty in a universally uncertain time. 

Just as the award nominees have been striving to provide solutions to the tightening restrictions and financial implications of Covid-19, so too have the team at UK Proptech. Throughout this challenging year, UK Proptech have provided support to property companies across the industry, helping them adapt to the new realities of the pandemic and continue with their business operations as best as possible. Via a new digital strategy in partnership with the British Property Federation and central government, UK Proptech have hosted weekly events to advise and provide support around legal matters, financial challenges and recruitment issues. UK Proptech have provided a pillar of support to our industry and have played a key role in aiding economic recovery, and for that we extend our most sincere gratitude.
