RECOGNIZING WOMEN LEADERS IN MIAMI COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE

Bisnow is excited to bring back our  Women Leading Real Estate (WLRE) in Miami event. Our WLRE initiative honors top-level executives and industry leaders who shape commercial real estate, and brings awareness to the importance of improving the diversity of our industry, particularly when it comes to hiring and promoting women.  

  

Women still make up a fraction of C-suite positions in our industry. Companies that are leading the way on this front are not only breaking the glass ceiling but also offering the support needed to bring more women into the industry and help them progress and succeed. 

  

The core purpose of this award program is to enhance the growth of women in commercial real estate and promote industry diversity more generally. Together with our sponsors, partners, and attendees, we aim to promote the importance of the employment of and development of viable career paths for women in CRE. This event will provide education, networking, and resources for professional development.
