Taking on more risk in the land sector

Welcome to the Housing Platform, from Platform Housing Group.  We’re a large, registered provider of social housing, and we manage over 50,000 homes across the Midlands.  In this episode, you join us in the middle of a very important field...one where we’ll soon start building over 200 affordable homes. The site is called Browns Lane and it’s in Tamworth in Staffordshire. It’s a site that shows that Platform is keen on changing how we approach securing land for affordable housing, in a way that we hope can accelerate what we deliver and exceed our previous standards of the places we create.  Hosted by Richard Hurst, communications business partner, we asked members of the land and new business team to join us on a sunny April morning to explain to you just what this new approach means...

episode Time to redefine AI? artwork

Time to redefine AI?

In March, we attended the Housing Technology conference in Nottingham, where professionals from across the tech and housing sectors came together for seminars, exhibitions and vital networking to really drill into their problems and solutions.  As you can imagine, a hefty section of the conference talked about artificial intelligence, and the possibilities it has in changing our sector for the better. The term is being banded around a lot at the moment...sometimes a bit too hastily to attract attention with then little of what we know as AI at the heart of it.  On day 3 of the conference, we took 15 minutes to sit down with Platform’s CIO Jon Cocker and one of our non-exec board members, Heena Prajapat to talk about it and ask, is it time to redefine AI already??? If you’ve got your own questions, send them to podcasts@platfromhg.com [podcasts@platfromhg.com] and we can put them to Jon and Heena.  This Housing Platform podcast is worth subscribing to for our thoughts on many different sector topics as well as sharing practices and experiences to help improve what we do for our customers.
