Real Estate Markets Signal Corporate Strategy
APAC and India are major growth hubs.

Real estate market developments are an underlying signal for corporate strategy. And all points to APAC, with one underestimated outlier.
The APAC region is the key growth driver globally. 80% of global GDP growth will originate in Asia, and 85% of the top 20 urban growth hubs are located here. And India is absolutely dominating.
9x.
This is the projected growth of India's real estate market by 2047. From USD 650 billion today to USD 5.8 trillion, India's built environment is on a substantial growth trajectory.
These are current figures shared by Savills and outlooks by KPMG.
I see this in my day to day. An increasing number of tech hubs being set up there, construction material and infrastructure companies moving real capital, private equity doubling target AUMs, and my local real estate network sharing one record development after the other.
So what does this mean?
Corporate footprint is a leading indicator. Where the offices, manufacturing sites, and warehouses go, capital and asset values follow. And data centres are the next lever here. India is fast becoming one of the key growth markets thanks to global market constraints and local policy changes, pulling in a new wave of capital and demand that reshapes the map further.
When the built environment sends this many signals at once, it is worth looking more closely.

For European corporates and investors, the growth is clear. The timing is the harder call.
