On September 20, at 16:00 EST, Patrick Calderon—founder of Piedra and managing partner at Mexican Idea Labs—will present a keynote session titled “Rebuilding Innovation from the Informal Economy Outward” at ReShaped: AI x Real Estate, a global virtual event hosted by NCC IQ. With over 40 real estate leaders and technologists joining the summit, Calderon’s session is expected to draw significant attention for its distinctive approach to scaling real estate innovation across Latin America and beyond.
Patrick’s work sits at the intersection of financial inclusion, artificial intelligence, and real estate tokenization. Through Piedra, he is reshaping the way investment access functions in emerging markets. By tokenizing real assets, Piedra offers a structure that lowers barriers to entry while promoting broader participation. His commitment to building infrastructure for informal economies reflects a nuanced view of economic potential, particularly in underserved geographies where conventional models fail to translate.
At Mexican Idea Labs, Patrick leads ventures that are built from the ground up with AI as a core design principle. Each solution is tailored to local systems—whether addressing fragmented credit histories or unbanked populations—and grounded in scalability. Rather than retrofitting advanced tools into outdated frameworks, his approach aligns technology with real behaviors and real constraints.
Patrick’s keynote will speak directly to executives seeking pragmatic applications of AI in real estate that go beyond sensor networks and smart buildings. His focus is not just on automating efficiency but on architecting systems of trust and liquidity where legacy systems don’t exist. For those operating in or exploring high-growth, high-friction markets, his insights offer a new vantage point for growth and resilience.
This year’s ReShaped summit is structured to support both strategic and tactical thinking. Whether the interest lies in AI modeling for construction risk, data-driven site selection, or tokenized asset structuring, the agenda is designed to equip professionals with knowledge that can inform allocation, underwriting, and development planning. What sets ReShaped apart is its attention to both innovation and application. The agenda avoids abstract futurism and focuses instead on deployment and results.
Registration is open now for ReShaped: AI x Real Estate. The event runs September 20-21, and includes live sessions, Q&A with speakers, and access to recorded content.
