We invite students from around the world to think creatively about a problem facing real estate professionals for renowned companies like USAA, Google, Standard Chartered, IBM, HSBC, AstraZeneca, Whirlpool, and many others.
You and your teammates will engage in a contest with competing institutions from Africa, Asia, Europe, and Oceania. Your job is to address challenges like creating an employee experience that attracts millennials while retaining all other generations of employees, or reducing the gap between the speed of business and the typical speed of real estate.
Budding professionals welcome! We’re seeking your ingenuity and creativity. The competition is open to all students (undergraduate/graduate, full-time/part-time) who are currently registered at a recognized university.
CoreNet Global is pleased to announce its 17th Academic Challenge.
The goal of this global competition is to raise awareness of corporate real estate as a viable career opportunity amongst college students of all academic disciplines, to connect local chapters and members of the association with future talent, and to encourage more universities to include corporate real estate in their curricula.
A Student Competition
Student teams from universities and academic institutions in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Oceania are invited to compete in an academic challenge wherein students are asked to play the role of an internal corporate real estate team in order to address a real-world issue facing companies around the globe: in consultation with colleagues in IT and Legal, develop an enterprise level strategy for the corporate real estate portfolio that takes maximum advantage of emerging AI technologies while minimizing associated risks.
What should corporate real estate expect from artificial intelligence? No one wants to be left behind because they didn’t embrace technology – but as organizations feel pressure, they will be forced to forge a new direction. To channel that energy the right way though, the most effective corporate real estate teams must have clear purpose – and while the methods that we use to create that new direction will be highly tech-augmented, the purpose of why we’re doing it must remain deeply rooted in our humanity.
Three teams, with a minimum of two (2) and a maximum of four (4) students each, will be selected to compete as part of the CoreNet Global Summit, a professional conference of corporate real estate professionals, to be held in Singapore, 4 – 6 March 2025. Interested students must complete a competition registration form and then respond to the challenge, as discussed herein. Based on the quality of their submission, three teams will be invited to participate (live) in the Final Round.
The winning team will be awarded US$5,000.
After registering for the competition, each team will be assigned a corporate profile including revenue, demographic, real estate portfolio, and strategic information to help get you started. Each team is competing against every other team; there is no one “right” response. Rather, the judges will compare each response against all the others to identify the finalists.

EACH TEAM MUST HAVE A FACULTY ADVISOR; INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE TO COMPETE.

Each student must be currently enrolled in classes at their host university throughout the competition, and not have more than 7 years prior professional experience. Participation by current Service Providers and End Users will be scrutinized to ensure compliance with current student status. Employees of CoreNet Global and their family members are not allowed to enter the competition. A competition registration website will be available no later than October 2024; the final registration date for the competition is identified elsewhere.
