Welcome to our Scientific and Practical Conference: "Challenges and
innovations in property valuation through AVMs for a transparent market in a
Transforming World"
Throughout this event, our focus will be on elucidating AVM, addressing
ethical considerations, evaluating its current state, and envisioning future
prospects in valuation. The discussions will extend to practical
applications across diverse markets, unraveling the algorithms behind the
scenes, scrutinizing data sources and requisite data structures, and
emphasizing data security and protection.
Our attention will then turn to advanced algorithms and modules in AVM,
dissecting both their potential and limitations. Delving into the
captivating realm of human-machine fusion in AVM, we will explore the
synergies between human minds and machines in mass appraisal scenarios.
The conference will conclude by exploring the future of AVM, highlighting
emerging trends and innovations in this dynamic field. Our overarching goal
has been to nurture thought-provoking discussions and establish a dedicated
platform for the exchange of knowledge, experiences, and groundbreaking
advancements, all centered around the challenges and innovations in property
valuation through AVMs for a transparent market in a transforming world. We
aim to leave our participants enriched with a deeper understanding of the
evolving landscape and the pivotal role AVMs play in shaping the future of
real estate markets, fostering transparency, and adapting to the dynamic
needs of our changing world.
Goals:
- Foster a collaborative
environment for professionals, academics, and regulators to share knowledge
and experiences.
- Encourage the adoption of
standardized practices in AVM that comply with global valuation
standards.
- Stimulate innovation and the
development of new tools and methods in property valuation.
- Promote ethical practices and
the responsible use of technology in the valuation profession.
- Provide insights into the impact
of AVMs on the global real estate market and valuation standards.
