Welcome to the CIO Chair, Andy.

It is absolute pleasure to have you here.

Investments span Canada, the US, Europe, and Asia.

Dennis has over 30 years of global experience with prior leadership roles at AXA Investment Managers, Sun Real Estate Group, and JP Morgan.

In this episode, we discuss how to identify and build strong real estate platforms, how investment in PropTech has helped the firm manage extraordinary growth without dramatically expanding its workforce, the development, power, and financing dynamics driving the data center boom, and the role institutional capital can play in affordable housing.

Here's my conversation with Dennis Lopez.
