Knowing the market starts with knowing who is operating.
Behind every listing is a business but not every business is visible, independently verified or easy to reach.
STRA identifies professional property managers, understands the markets in which they operate and creates trusted settings where they can speak openly about the commercial and operational issues they face.
For experts, technology companies and investors, this changes the conversation. You enter as a recognised participant within an independent regional platform not another vendor searching for leads.
Research
Independent reports and market intelligence through the Knowledge Hub and Art of Data.
Verification
Identifying and recognising professional property-management businesses beyond their listings.
Leadership
Operator-led conversations and the annual Gather · Connect · Grow Leadership Summit.
Connection
STRA Experts, the Art of STR, webinars, roundtables and relevant introductions throughout the year.
Regional in purpose. Grounded in Asia. Connected to the world.
Expertise inside STRA
STRA Experts is not a public directory.
Our experts work alongside STRA and professional operators through meetings, virtual and in-person roundtables, research, report publication and Gather · Connect · Grow.
They become recognised, go-to expertise within their subject across Asia, fully involved in the work rather than appearing for isolated pieces of content.
STRA at Work
Monday - The Asia STR Brief
What changed across Asia’s short-term rental sector, why it matters and what professional operators should watch next.
Wednesday - The Other Side of STR
Real operating situations, shared experiences and practical lessons property managers across Asia will recognise.
Friday - The Friday Read
The reports, research and market analysis worth reading with the key finding and its relevance for Asia clearly explained.
Once a year, the work comes together.
Throughout the year, STRA connects research, verified operators, expertise and industry conversations across Asia.
Once a year, the work and the people behind it come together at Gather · Connect · Grow Bangkok.

Bangkok is the host city. Asia is the room.

Partner with STRA
STRA works with a limited number of organisations that bring relevant expertise, technology, research or market knowledge to Asia’s professional short-term rental sector.
Partnerships operate throughout the year across STRA research, reports, operator conversations, webinars, podcasts and Gather · Connect · Grow.
This is an active position within STRA’s work, not simply event sponsorship or logo placement.
Insights
STRA brings together professional property managers, platforms, and industry stakeholders across Asia to support a more structured, transparent, and collaborative short-term rental ecosystem
