The flexible office industry is growing fast, but a major problem is slowing it down—landlords and operators still aren’t fully aligned.

On this week’s Brave Ideas Podcast (shot onsite at The Empire State Building in NYC) Sam Gamble and I sat down with office real estate powerhouse Giovanni Palivicini (Gio)

Gio, who has worked with top landlords and operators to bridge the gap in valuation, data, and collaboration is Executive Director for the Global Workspace Association, Founder of Fronteras Commercial Real Estate, and Co-host of the Flex Uncensored Podcast with Jamie Russo.

🚧 So, what’s the issue?

  • Landlords struggle to value flex spaces—traditional models don’t work.

  • Operators hold key data, but landlords need transparency.

  • Enterprise demand for flex space is booming—but investors still hesitate.

🏨 What’s the solution?

Gio explains how hotels and self-storage have already solved the valuation challenge, and why flex office leaders must rethink their approach to get landlords and investors on board.
