The last month of the year is here, and IREN is ending the year breaking records. To date, the IREN Daily email has published more than 948 original stories and has already exceeded last year’s total number of IREN stories, when 937 stories were published.
When I started at Institutional Real Estate, Inc., IREN was a weekly PDF that published fewer than 100 original stories each year, while the majority of the stories were from other media outlets.
Not only have we increased our speed on breaking news, delivering IREN on a weekly basis, we have increased our exposure internationally. This year, Americas-focused stories makes up more than 69 percent of our coverage, while Europe is 22 percent and Asia Pacific is 18 percent. Compare that to last year’s numbers: Americas stories were approximately 70 percent, Europe approximately 20 percent and Asia Pacific approximately 10 percent.
In November, our top five stories were:
- Wisconsin commits $200m to real estate
- Two Asia Pacific investors invest billions into U.S. logistics
- John Hancock Investments launches global real estate fund
- California pension fund invests $110m in real estate
- NYSTRS commits $650m to real estate
