Mike Zatz Takes the Helm of Global Partnerships at Measurabl
Mike Zatz Joins Measurabl
In a significant shift for the sustainability data landscape in real estate, Mike Zatz has been appointed as the Senior Vice President of Global Data Ecosystem and Partnerships at Measurabl. His impressive history of 19 years at the U.S. EPA, where he led the ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager program, positions him as a key figure in enhancing sustainability practices across the industry.
Transforming the Sustainability Data Ecosystem
Zatz's work with the ENERGY STAR program facilitated the acceptance of sustainability practices within real estate, encompassing over 35 billion square feet across North America. Under his leadership, the program not only became a cornerstone for energy benchmarking but also established critical partnerships, such as the one with the Canadian government to standardize sustainability measures.
A New Approach to Sustainability
At Measurabl, Zatz aims to transform how the industry interprets data related to sustainability. He recognizes that while there have been various improvements in reporting and scoring, this approach has often been insufficient in driving concrete results that benefit the bottom line. His focus will be to foster a global platform aimed at making timely and reliable sustainability data available to stakeholders across the entire real estate spectrum.
Global Real Estate Market Insights
The impact of Zatz’s leadership comes during a crucial time in the real estate sector. With global transactions exceeding $3.4 trillion annually, the industry is in dire need of dependable sustainability data to support decision-making processes. Zatz will spearhead initiatives to build a comprehensive data infrastructure that not only meets current demands but is resilient for future challenges.
Engaging Diverse Stakeholders
One of Zatz's objectives is to create an ecosystem where various players, including owners, managers, and investors, can securely share data. This collaborative framework aims to yield insights and benchmarks that are vital for policy-making and market operations. By standardizing definitions and metrics, the project aims to enhance trust and value throughout the industry.
Building a Coalition for Change
Zatz’s appointment is vital for Measurabl's mission to foster a unified global data ecosystem. Emphasizing the importance of stakeholder collaboration, he plans to assemble a network of partners who can contribute to and benefit from shared sustainability data. His experience in both building relationships and leading data-driven projects will be instrumental in this endeavor.
Impact of the Free Solution
Recently, Measurabl launched a free sustainability software solution designed to empower real estate stakeholders. By removing barriers to entry, this initiative encourages wider participation and growth of the ecosystem’s dataset. Within weeks, this solution has attracted over 12,000 buildings, illustrating Measurabl's commitment to making sustainability data accessible for all.
Measurabl’s Vision for the Future
Looking ahead, Zatz’s mandate at Measurabl is clear: drive the progress of sustainability data on a global scale. By leveraging the rich data accumulated through collaborations with utilities, climate services, and certification bodies, Zatz will work towards ensuring that sustainability considerations become integral to business decisions across the industry.
Cultural Shifts in Sustainability Practices
The response from industry leaders has been largely positive, with many recognizing the need for a cultural shift toward universal accessibility of critical sustainability data. Zatz's vision aligns strongly with the growing demand for transparent, actionable information that informs not just investments but also broader environmental responsibilities.
Continuing the Legacy of Sustainability
Mike Zatz's transition to Measurabl is about harnessing decades of experience to amplify the impact of sustainability initiatives in real estate. His previous achievements and current goals reflect a robust understanding of how to navigate complex ecosystems and advance substantial change.
