The University of Tulsa’s Cayman Seagraves will join over 40 real estate leaders and AI experts this September at the ReShaped: AI x Real Estate virtual event. As a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor of Finance at TU’s Collins College of Business, Seagraves brings a data-driven, academic lens to a rapidly evolving sector—where capital allocation and automation are becoming increasingly interconnected.
Cayman is set to speak during the “The AI-Driven Fund: Running a Real Estate Investment Vehicle with Automation” panel on September 21, from 12:10 to 1:00 PM EST, Seagraves will explore how emerging models of automation are impacting fund operations, asset selection, and investor strategy. His background in Corporate and Real Estate Finance offers a rare blend of analytical precision and applied theory—qualities increasingly necessary as institutional investment strategies adapt to a world where models can self-adjust, portfolios can rebalance in real-time, and underwriting decisions can be simulated instantly.
ReShaped is more than just a conference—it’s a knowledge-sharing summit focused on the practical impact of artificial intelligence across every layer of the built environment. From smart construction to algorithmic leasing, the event’s programming is designed for institutional investors, PropTech entrepreneurs, asset managers, urban planners, and academics alike. Cayman Seagraves, with his academic foundation from Florida State University and a research portfolio rooted in financial systems, stands out as a speaker who connects theory to practice.
As automation continues to reshape real estate investment—from underwriting and risk modeling to portfolio management—insights from emerging voices like Cayman are essential. The “AI-Driven Fund” panel will offer a structured discussion on current technologies being adopted by fund managers and will challenge attendees to think about how processes long managed by humans are being delegated to machine-led systems.
For real estate investors seeking to future-proof operations, or funds exploring leaner, more responsive operating models, this discussion offers timely guidance. It also brings into focus a broader theme emerging from the ReShaped agenda: how AI tools are impacting not just efficiencies, but investment philosophies themselves.
