Dror Poleg is an economic historian and former technology and private equity executive who advises the world's largest investors, companies, and policymakers on the forces reshaping work, cities, and markets. His award-winning book, Rethinking Real Estate, anticipated the current reshuffling of offices, homes, and economic activity in the wake of technological and economic shifts.

A sought-after keynote speaker, Dror has briefed executives at Fortune 500 companies, leading financial institutions, and global organizations, including UBS, Bank of America, CBRE, HSBC, and Indeed.
