Real Estate Innovation Festival

Significant shifts are happening in commercial real estate (CRE). With the protracted cycle the CRE industry is in uncharted territory. Is this is a fundamental shift? Does early/mid/late-cycle investing need to be re-evaluated? With geo-political risk, tax reform and other critical industry disruptors that are causing or have the potential to cause major change across asset classes, where are we headed? How in turn does this impact deal flow, valuations, large fund dominance in fundraising, the availability and cost of capital, etc., etc., etc.? As some investment opportunities recede, what others are rising to take their place? What are the innovative investment strategies that early adopters are already reaping the rewards from? Tacking these fundamental issues and this year proud to celebrate its 20th year serving this community, IMN is excited to once again host the largest event of its kind on the West Coast and look forward to hosting you at the Montage Laguna Beach to kick off another great year for the industry.

IMN is pleased to announce the 2nd Annual ESG & Decarbonizing Real Estate Forum, taking place February 8 – 9, 2024 in Nashville, TN. There is no longer a debate about whether ESG is a worthwhile investment and risk management principle, and ESG has become embedded into policymaking and institutional investment agendas worldwide. Given the continued impacts of climate change, increased public awareness around social factors, and companies of all sizes being held to higher governance standards, ESG has become top of mind for the real estate market. Featuring the timely educational takeaways and variety of tailored networking opportunities you’ve come to expect from IMN, we hope you will join us in February.
