HDFC Capital Advisors on Thursday announced the launch of a new initiative that seeks to mentor, partner and invest in real estate technology companies that drive innovation and efficiencies within the affordable housing ecosystem.
As part of HDFC Affordable Real Estate and Technology Programme (HeART), HDFC Capital will provide a platform to real estate technology companies with innovative products aimed at creating efficiencies and lowering costs in each part of the development cycle.
