Building concretely secure spaces

Enhancing women’s safety in real estate and connectivity infrastructure can increase their participation and drive growth

- Dr. Malini Saba

Over the decades, we have witnessed a visible increase in the number of women purchasing, renting and working in real estate spaces across the spectrum. From the earlier scenario - where real estate project planning was traditionally done by men, with men being the primary customers and a majority of the workforce, the situation has changed drastically. The quantum of women buying homes and offices, as well as playing a key role in corporates, has increased substantially.

The question is: how can we enhance this even further? The answer, equally simple, lies in making real estate and commuting infrastructure projects even more women-friendly going forward. Today, women run offices as well as households and have direct impact on the types of homes and office spaces they choose to buy or rent. They are now a part of the income-bearing population with significant purchasing power, making them increasingly relevant when it comes to taking real estate decisions, either individually or jointly, with respect to convenience and safety aspects.
