The Importance of Data in Student Accommodation - Paul Humphreys and Tuely Robins of StudentCrowd

In our final episode of our summer series for Housed we chatted with Paul Humphreys and Tuely Robins of StudentCrowd. Paul co-founded the decision-making platform in 2014 and it has now helped over 12 million users, it also provides datasets to support the decision making of both operators and property advisors. Having specialised in data articulation, Tuely now focuses on strategic partnerships which support StudentCrowd, the sector and student experience.

Sarah, Deenie and Dan chat with the StudentCrowd team about:
🔵 Helping students to make better decisions with their accommodation
