Building Cities of Innovation and Connection

HqO is leading the transformation of the way people experience real estate by converging data, technology, and the customer. Empowering data-driven strategies and real estate decisions, we're redefining the way people experience space, and in turn, helping to create vibrant, engaging communities.

Our Purpose

To drive economic prosperity in cities by transforming CRE into an experiential platform for growth

Commercial real estate is transforming. It’s no longer about managing buildings — it’s about managing relationships and experiences.

By converging data, technology, and human experience, we turn buildings into adaptive platforms that empower people and communities. Our focus goes beyond walls and windows — it’s about creating vibrant ecosystems where every interaction adds value to the people within them.

This people-first philosophy underpins our Quantum City vision — a future where every city becomes an intelligent, experience-driven system that unlocks human and economic potential at scale.

Transforming Real Estate

We’re transforming real estate through the Real Estate Experience (REX) Platform — the operating system for experiential real estate.

REX enables owners, operators, and employers to reimagine how people interact with their spaces. Whether you’re an asset manager optimizing operations or an executive fostering an engaged workplace culture, the REX Platform unifies data, insights, and digital experiences to help you achieve your people and business goals.

By connecting every stakeholder in the built environment, REX transforms traditional properties into dynamic, adaptive ecosystems — the building blocks of the Quantum City vision, where every square foot contributes to a smarter, more connected, and more prosperous urban future.
