What a week at RETCON 2025! The Livly team showed up in a big way as a Diamond Sponsor, and we had an absolute blast connecting with industry leaders, sharing insights, and showing off our latest innovations. With two jam-packed speaking sessions, an energetic booth, and an exclusive VIP event, we made some serious waves in the multifamily tech space.

The VIP Event: Good Vibes, Great Conversations

Beyond the conference, we hosted an exclusive VIP happy hour in a Grand Tower suite at MGM Grand, and it was definitely a highlight of the week. With Sinatra vibes setting the tone, our team energized Day 2 at RETCON, bringing together some of the best minds in the industry. Sponsored by Livly, Onboard, Swtch, Apartment Snapshot and Neighbor, the event was an incredible opportunity to connect, unwind, and dive into the real challenges and opportunities shaping multifamily today—all in a relaxed and engaging setting.

Here’s What Stood Out at RETCON 2025

Spotlight on Industry Leadership: Sarah and David Take the Stage

A major highlight of RETCON was seeing our very own Sarah Bonder, VP of Sales, and David Shaw, President and COO, take the stage to share their expertise.

Sarah’s session was packed with actionable insights on how technology is transforming resident engagement and property operations. She broke down the biggest challenges operators face today and how they can future-proof their communities with smarter, integrated solutions.

David’s talk took a deep dive into the power of owning your own data and partnering with a tech provider who can properly handle that data and give you the best platform for insights.

Everyone’s Talking About Unified Platforms

One thing was crystal clear—operators are tired of juggling multiple systems. The buzz around RETCON? Centralized, all-in-one solutions are the future. Our conversations reinforced that decision-makers want platforms that make life easier, improve resident experiences, and simplify operations. Livly’s unified platform checked all the right boxes, and it was awesome to see how much it resonated with attendees.

AI is No Longer Just a Cool Feature—It’s a Must-Have

AI-powered tech was a hot topic, and our sessions dove deep into how AI is actually changing the game. From predicting maintenance issues before they become disasters to boosting lease renewals, the take-home message was clear: AI isn’t just a nice-to-have anymore—it’s a game-changer. And the best part? Livly is already delivering AI-driven solutions that make a real difference for property managers and residents alike.

Real Results > Hype

One of our favorite parts of RETCON was the real talk happening at our booth. Operators aren’t falling for flashy marketing anymore—they want tech that actually works and moves the needle on NOI, retention, and operational efficiency. We had some great conversations about how Livly is cutting through the noise with live demos and real results instead of overhyped claims. That honesty and transparency really stood out.
