At mys, we’re always on the lookout for new ways to enhance the student living experience. Recently, we attended an insightful webinar hosted by Tim Daplyn featuring experts from Global Student Living (GSL), a leading customer and market intelligence agency specialising in student living.    

What This Means for mys 

For mys, these insights are invaluable as we continue to align our services with the needs and preferences of our residents. The data-driven approach showcased by GSL confirms the importance of real-time feedback and market intelligence in enhancing the quality of student accommodation. By developing our technical capabilities and integrating these advanced tools, we can ensure that mys properties not only meet but exceed the expectations of residents. 

Our commitment to sustainability, social responsibility and utilising technology to do, better is mirrored in our recent rebranding and website redesign. Inspired by our core values of activism and ambition we have developed our website with a core focus on reducing its carbon footprint. This webinar reinforced our belief that continuous innovation and data-driven decision-making are key for achieving our goals, including attaining full B Corp certification. 

Embracing Innovation in Student Accommodation 

In a sector that has traditionally been slow to adopt new technologies, it’s encouraging to see advancements being made that could significantly enhance the product for its student customers. Data is king when you want to understand customers habits, trends and requirements – the developments in data collection and analysis represent a positive shift, resulting in a sector that can understand and meet the needs of students even better. 

Exploring New Technologies for Better Outcomes 

At mys, we recognise the importance of staying ahead of the curve and are actively exploring these emerging technologies to ensure we launch with the best data and tools available. By doing so, we aim to set new standards in the quality of student accommodation. 

We are particularly interested in innovative approaches like those that utilise real-time data analytics. These tools promise to provide deeper, more actionable feedback, allowing us to refine our services and deliver an unmatched student living experience. 

Looking Forward: Data-Driven Excellence 

As we move forward, we are committed to leveraging the most effective technologies and methodologies to enhance our offerings. We believe that by embracing innovation and prioritising data-driven decision-making, we can continue to lead in providing high-quality, value-driven accommodation that truly makes a difference in the lives of our residents.
