Interview with Ben Gilliland, the chairman and founder of Future Proof Property Intelligence. We will talk about his vision for the future of cities, public dialogue, alchemy, technology, future proofing, collaboration, and many more.

Ben Gilliland is the chairman and founder of Future Proof Property Intelligence, where he spearheaded the spin-out of an advanced AI platform from The Paulele Housing Association (TPHA), a Hawaii-based nonprofit he co-founded with his late wife, Holly. With over 55 years in design, technology, structured finance, and venture capital – including patents in fibre optics and innovative construction remediation – Ben leads a holistic solution to extreme weather risks. The platform delivers precise AI-driven property risk assessments, engineered remediation plans, vetted contractors, DIY options, and tailored financing – empowering homeowners, developers, engineers, insurers, and policymakers to reduce disaster costs proactively. As Ben says: the risks are real – but so are the solutions, so let’s fix it, instead of forgetting it!
