At this year’s PropTech Connect conference in London, one message stood out. Landlords and property managers want technology that is practical and helps them stay competitive in a changing market.

Here are three trends we found most interesting:
1. Flexible, modular solutions beat one-size-fits-all platforms
Tenants today expect more from their offices, move-in ready spaces, the freedom to choose their providers, and contracts that fit their lease terms. That means landlords can’t rely on rigid, all-in-one platforms that don’t adapt as requirements evolve.
This is why landlords and operators are looking for specialist partners who provide modular solutions that integrate smoothly with other building systems. This gives landlords the flexibility to upgrade or switch partners without overhauling everything, and ensures tenants get the experience they expect.
2. Landlords need building tech designed around real users
A recurring frustration across the sector is that technology is often designed by consultants and delivered by contractors, yet it rarely aligns with the practical needs of those managing the building. Too often, property teams are left with systems that look impressive on paper but don’t work in practice. They need partners to understand the operational needs of their buildings in practice, not just on paper.
For landlords, investing in solutions that match day-to-day building operations not only improves usability but can also save money. Technology partners who understand what property managers and operators actually need (not just what looks good in a spec sheet) are essential for avoiding costly inefficiencies
3. Smarter use of existing infrastructure can cut costs and increase efficiency
Not every operational improvement requires new hardware. Many buildings already have the tools in place to generate useful data. Wi-Fi access points are a good example. These can be used to anonymously track space utilisation, footfall, and occupancy trends.
This data can help landlords and operators:
- Allocate bandwidth to the busiest areas.
- Adjust heating, lighting, and cleaning schedules based on actual usage.
- Optimise leasing strategies by understanding how tenants really use the space.

Internet connectivity is the lifeblood of modern businesses, powering operations, communication, and growth. But not all “fibre” connections are created equal.
All connections use fibre at some level, but performance, reliability, and guarantees vary depending on the underlying network. Choosing the right type of connection now can save downtime, frustration, and cost in the future.
In this guide, we'll explore key factors when selecting the ideal business internet provider to keep you connected and thriving.

Understand the connection types
Here’s a quick comparison of the three main fibre-based connections available to businesses:
FTTC and FTTP may work for small teams or low-risk work, but DIA is the only connection built for business-critical reliability, speed, and consistent performance.
Ask yourself these questions
Before comparing providers, clarify your internal needs:
- How critical is uptime for your business operations?
- Which teams rely heavily on cloud apps, video conferencing, or large file transfers?
- How much bandwidth do we need now, and how much will we need in 2–5 years?
- Are upload speeds as important as download speeds for our workflows?
- Would temporary downtime cause financial or reputational damage?
This self-assessment helps you match connection types to your business requirements.
