Clients and partners such as Ziff Davis, Sam Ash, AIG, Prudential Douglas Elliman, the NHL, and a host of others were soon to follow. In 2008-2009, collaborations with New Developments and Philippe Starck resulted in a number of interactive touch screen and multi-touch installations all over NYC and the United Arab Emirates, leading to greater involvement within the real estate industry.As Collura and Team5 delved deeper into real estate, they realized media was an issue for many companies.
