"NAREIM’s Executive Officer meeting consistently delivers great content, candid peer conversations and valuable insights. It's my favorite CRE industry event.”
Bobby Bransfield, Head of Investment Management, Prologis, Executive Officer meeting
"This is by far the best professional event I attend every year. The relevancy of the topics and networking sessions is unmatched." Connor Western, AVP, AEW Capital Management on NAREIM's Architecture, Engineering & Development meeting
"The power to have a safe space of open dialogue is a confidence booster within all of our positions. Thank you NAREIM for allowing us to have a platform and forum to discuss topics of such importance." Jerry Walsh, CapRidge Partners, Talent Management meeting
"I find NAREIM sessions to be very productive, using real life cases with rich and engaging conversations about topics truly relevant to data in real estate." Juan Velderrian, Strategic Initiatives, Invesco on NAREIM's Data & Information Management meeting
"My meeting experience really was amazing. It felt comforting, inviting, and hopeful and I really appreciate all of the work and planning that went into it. I hope I can join every year." Sophia Roldan-Bowman, AEW Capital Management, LatinX Real Estate Roundtable meeting
"You will not find a more enthusiastic group of thinkers on the present and future of real estate. I had eye-opening conversations at each table and within each session of the conference, but also in transit between events. This group is relentless. You can't help but be infected by their passion for real estate." David Donato, President, Continental Realty Corporation, Executive Officer meeting
"When passionate ESG leaders in real estate come together under one roof for even a handful of hours, it's amazing how much knowledge sharing and inspiration can transpire." Isela Rosela, Head of ESG, Bridge Investment Group on NAREIM's Sustainability meeting
"NAREIM is THE organization for real estate investment managers!" Carla Grace, Hines, Capital Raising & Investor Relations meeting
"Whenever I am at a networking event I always have to introduce myself and my company as a real estate investment adviser and provide a description as to what that is. It was novel to be in a room full of professionals in the same business where we can skip over that "what do you do" to the "how are you doing it" conversations." Kaitlyn Bennett, AJ Capital, Legal, Compliance & Risk meeting
"This is my favorite sustainability meeting. It's not only laser-focused on my specific work within ESG, but it is also a meeting of great minds where we have candid conversations and share insights with each other." Colin Walker, Grubb Properties, Sustainability meeting
