Hines Establishes Global Digital Strategy Office
Hines has established a Global Digital Strategy Office (GDSO) and has promoted three leaders to establish the department. The GDSO will be led by Ilene Goldfine, promoted to chief digital strategy officer from SVP, business technology; Jeannie Schneider, promoted to CTO from SVP, IT; and Adam Hastings, promoted to chief data officer from senior managing director, corporate analytics.
The new office will focus on:
- Leveraging technology and robust global data sets to make better decisions for the firm’s investors and clients.
- Providing enhanced client services, such as implementing a “smart building” strategy, to digitize the real estate ecosystem.
- Tracking relevant data to guide the firm in reaching its strategic ESG objectives.
The GDSO was formed after seeing some of the group’s early successes, such as the creation of a global data warehouse which has integrated a substantial number of previous disparate and siloed sources of information.
