HelloOffice Changes Name to Raise, Launches Product and Service Line

Raise Commercial Real Estate (formerly known as HelloOffice), the technology-powered commercial real estate brokerage looking to help companies re-imagine the workplace, has launched a re-designed technology platform, new website and new workplace services offering for all clients.

“The pandemic accelerated the future of the workplace in a matter of months, what was previously a decade in the making,” said Justin Bedecarre, CEO of Raise. “After surveying hundreds of clients and interviewing workplace leaders across many industries, it was clear to us that the reimagination of work is upon us. The need for intuitive technology and scalable workplace services has never been greater.”

The Raise platform digitizes the siloed processes commonplace in commercial real estate and allows brokers, project managers and workplace strategists to directly interact with tenants, helping them build multi-market real estate portfolios and operate collaborative, dynamic workplaces for employees. Raise clients range from established, publicly traded organizations like Palantir to high-growth startups like Brex. Capitalizing on its $20 million Series A funding raised in the height of the pandemic, Raise is uniquely positioned to help companies both reimagine how they work and build the office of the future, the company said.

“Our commitment to serving clients in this new world of work can only be achieved by combining the most intuitive technology solutions alongside the leading experts in brokerage, project management, and workplace strategy. Our service compliments our technology, and we couldn’t be where we are today without both,” Bedecarre said.

In addition to its new technology platform, Raise has assembled a world-class team of workplace innovators to lead clients, from financial services to bio-technology and software companies, to navigate the office of the future, the announcement continued. Comprising workplace experts from Tesla, Zynga, Pinterest, and LinkedIn, Raise’s newest service offering provides clients robust return-to-office playbooks and hybrid workplace implementation plans. Raise is rolling out these services to all new and existing clients.
