Lasse Henrichsen introduces the Digital Manifesto: a shared commitment to open standards, interoperability, security, data ownership and freedom from vendor lock-in.

Because the real question isn't which technology we choose today. It's whether we'll still have the freedom to choose tomorrow.

The most important technology in the building is often the one nobody notices.

First, HPE and Life@Work ask whether we need 4G/5G everywhere - or whether modern WiFi and OpenRoaming can cover more of the need, at lower cost and with less technology lock-in.

Then, Proptivity and Ericsson explain that sensors, automation and smart services mean little if connectivity fails. Neutral-host infrastructure can deliver robust indoor 4G/5G without parallel operator networks.

As buildings become more connected, cyber risk becomes operational risk.

What is an acceptable level of security in a modern building — and how does the owner know they have it? Entra, Intility and Defendable present the REDI Practical Cybersecurity Guide, turning that question into a practical framework for real estate.

Before intelligent services comes basic structure.

How do owners build a digital foundation that lowers switching costs, reduces duplicate work and makes new services easier to buy, deploy and scale? Entra, Smedvig, Bane NOR and UiO compare what they have learned about standards, procurement, data ownership and vendor lock-in.
