One of the highlights of the evening was the panel discussion “10 Years of Transformation in Real Estate: What Has Changed — and What Comes Next.” Moderated by Nicastro, the conversation brought together Hilton Rejman (Brookfield Properties), Miltom D’Avila (Itaú BBA), João Arthur Almeida (Suno), and Nessim Sarfati (Barzel Properties) for a candid dialogue on the role of information in the sector’s evolution.

“Thirty years ago, decisions were made by instinct. Today, information is the most valuable asset there is,” said Sarfati. Rejman, of Brookfield, agreed: “Even when landlords or tenants are reluctant to share data, SiiLA delivers trustworthy information to the market — and that completely changes how decisions are made.”

For D’Avila, transparency has become a matter of governance: “In any credit committee, we use SiiLA data. It’s a core part of risk and quality assessment.”

Almeida added: “Having access to data is no longer a differentiator. The real advantage lies in interpretation — in who can turn data into depth.”

The panel also addressed the growing maturity of the logistics sector and the new chapter for office buildings, now seen as hubs for culture, community, and productivity. A clear consensus emerged: the Brazilian market has entered a new phase of professionalization, selectivity, and intelligence, where strategic capital meets purpose and technology.

The next highlight came from Guga Stocco, futurist, investor, and founder of Banco Original, whose keynote on artificial intelligence left the audience in reflective silence. “Humans tend to overestimate the short term and underestimate the long term,” he said, noting how AI is already transforming industries — including real estate.

He challenged the audience: “When autonomous vehicles begin making automated deliveries across cities, what will your company do to adapt?”

According to Stocco, the real change will not only be technological but behavioral. “Your future audience is the 18-year-old who will spend 312 months of their life in front of a screen. The dynamics of life have changed — and so must the way we connect with people.”

It was both a call to action and a reminder that innovation and resilience go hand in hand.

Representing Workplace Arquitetura Corporativa, the event’s master sponsor, Thais Trentin presented the concept of Office Staging — a design approach that transforms vacant office floors into inspiring, livable environments.

“Office Staging helps potential tenants visualize the space, accelerates leasing decisions, and increases perceived value. In commercial assets, it can raise value by up to 5%,” explained Trentin.

Her remarks encapsulated one of the event’s central messages: the future of work is also the future of space.

To close the celebration, SiiLA paid tribute to companies and institutions that played key roles in building a more transparent, efficient, and innovative real estate market over the past decade.

Brookfield Properties was recognized in the category Leadership in Market Transformation for its remarkable contribution to urban development, combining innovation, social impact, and long-term vision across its projects.

GLP Brasil received the Pioneering in Logistics Development award for setting new standards of quality and efficiency that redefined the industrial and logistics sector in Brazil.

Colliers was honored in the Knowledge Amplification category for its continued contribution to professional education, data dissemination, and insights that empower decision-making throughout the industry.

Clube FII was awarded in the Transparency and Financial Education category for democratizing access to information and inspiring a new generation of investors and professionals in real estate.

Finally, a special tribute was dedicated to Giancarlo Nicastro, founder and CEO of SiiLA, acknowledging his leadership, vision, and pioneering role in transforming the Latin American real estate market.

“Tonight is not only about what we’ve built — it’s about what we’re ready to build next,” said Nicastro, receiving the applause of an audience that has grown alongside SiiLA.

More than a celebration, SiiLA’s 10-year event was a mirror of the industry’s own evolution — one that learned to value data, embrace technology, and communicate with greater transparency and purpose.

It was also a testament to how SiiLA has become a central hub for the entire ecosystem, connecting intelligence, media, and market insights across Latin America.

By the end of the night — between toasts, reunions, and applause — one message echoed among the guests: the next decade will be even more transformative, and SiiLA will continue to lead that change.

SiiLA’s 10-year celebration was more than just a milestone — it was a moment to reflect on a decade of innovation and transformation in Latin America’s commercial real estate market, while looking ahead to what’s next. By bringing together industry leaders, investors, developers, and professionals for a night of insight and connection, the event reinforced SiiLA’s mission: to serve as a comprehensive hub for data, media, and strategic solutions in the region.

With operations in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia, SiiLA empowers the real estate ecosystem with advanced market intelligence, technology, and original content that supports every stage of decision-making — from investors to occupiers. Through platforms like Market Analytics, REsource, SPOT, Marketing 360º, Academy, and the SiiLA PODCAST, the company is driving a more transparent, efficient, and connected commercial real estate market.
