Join us in this episode as we sit down with RNDSQR President and seasoned real estate developer, Alkarim Devani. Follow his transformative journey from residential real estate to inner city developments, fueled by a deep passion for design and architecture. Delve into the compelling story behind the birth of RNDSQR, a company instrumental in breathing new life into Calgary’s inner city with a blend of mixed-density properties. Engage in the discussions on the importance of respecting the land, disseminating historical city narratives, and harnessing technology for societal good. With Alkarim at the helm, we navigate through the importance of affordable housing for diverse age groups, the challenges he faces in advocating for this model, and his unyielding commitment to bringing stakeholders on board for accessible housing.
