The partnership marks a significant move by Resident Holdings to protect and monetize the digital presence of its real estate portfolio as spatial computing and augmented reality become increasingly mainstream. Under the leadership of Founder Robbie Antonio, Resident Holdings continues to position itself at the forefront of innovation in the tech-driven startup and real estate sectors, now extending its vision into the digital realm.

Securing the digital layer of real estate

Digital Rights include the augmented reality and 3D layer of real-world property. In today’s marketplace, advertisers, entertainment studios, and social media companies are utilizing buildings as a canvas for digital commercial campaigns without obtaining permission. As AR glasses and mobile apps with spatial computing capabilities become widespread, DRM provides property owners with a clear pathway to control and monetize their digital assets.

Founded by five-time Emmy® Award-winning producer and AR pioneer Neil Mandt, DRM utilizes secure blockchain technology to publicly record ownership and acts as the legal, financial, and technical infrastructure connecting real estate, advertising, insurance, data, finance, government, and media industries.

Property rights in the digital age

The partnership aligns with Resident Holdings’ mission to identify and nurture ventures that disrupt industries and create significant global impact. Known for its tech-driven approach and strategic collaborations with leading figures in technology and entertainment, Resident Holdings has consistently been at the forefront of innovation.

“At Resident Holdings, we’ve always believed in staying ahead of industry trends and protecting the value of our investments,” said Robbie Antonio. “This partnership with DRM represents the natural evolution of property rights in the digital age. Just as we have pioneered innovative business developments through global collaborations, we’re now securing the digital future of our properties. Our portfolio deserves protection and monetization opportunities in both the physical and digital dimensions.”

How DRM Works

DRM’s platform enables property owners to register real estate by securely registering physical properties to establish digital rights. Property owners can control digital representation by defining how properties appear in AR and spatial computing environments, while monetizing digital assets through licensing digital rights to advertisers, brands, and content creators. The platform ensures protection through patent-pending technology that enables automated insurance coverage and compliance.

DRM has already registered more than $50 billion in commercial real estate assets during its invite-only beta phase, with clients including BXP (owners of Prudential Tower, John Hancock Tower, and Salesforce Tower), Colliers International, The Flatiron Building, and prominent Las Vegas properties.
