Our commitment to your safety

We have been inspired by the industry’s enthusiasm as we return to live events and have been thrilled to safely host more than 4,000 executives this summer. As we continue to overcome and emerge from the Covid-19 pandemic, we know the best way through the latest developments and to keep the industry thriving is by working together. As such, we are updating our event safety guidelines & protocols as follows:

 

  • In accordance with CDC guidelines, we are recommending that all participants wear a mask, regardless of vaccination status. Masks will be made available at the door.
  • Temperature checks will be conducted at entry.
  • Attendance at the event will be capped and no tickets will be sold at the door. 
  • Contact tracing procedures will be employed for any reported exposure.
  • Socially distanced seating will be available in the main event space.
  • Enhanced sanitization protocols will be adhered to throughout the event space including regularly disinfecting surfaces throughout the event and hand sanitizer provided to all attendees.

 

As local regulations and guidance evolve, the CRE industry continues to lead the way forward. We look forward to gathering safely to do what we do best: network, connect, and engage to do more business. We look forward to hosting you soon.

Why This Matters

Why This Matters:

  • Chicago, like all major cities, saw a mass exodus of people during the pandemic. As the city has reopened, have people and companies returned?
  • Cannabis sales have hit record highs over the past year, bringing in some much-needed revenue for the city and state. How can the CRE industry best take advantage of this hot new industry?
  • Fulton Market is Chicago's hottest neighborhood with life science lab space, trendy hotels, and plenty of multifamily in the pipeline. How can Fulton Market pick up where it left off prior to the pandemic? 
  • With the world reopening, tourism is making a strong comeback. Could we see some of the larger business conferences be planned and executed for the end of 2021? 

   

How You'll Do More Business: Cities across the country are navigating the post-covid restriction world. With many companies asking employees to return after labor day, cities are hoping to see a spike in population. Hear how the CRE community is preparing for a return to normalcy. 

    

Who You'll Meet: Owners, developers, investors, GCs, lawyers, architects, accountants, and engineers.
