What you'll learn

  • As new markets are embracing the Life Science industry, why are users feeling bullish in investing and developing in the Mid-Atlantic area? How is our region competing with different markets?
  • Strategic Design & Development: How are investors and developers meeting the latest demands when it comes to design and amenities? What is being implemented to ensure purpose-built life science facilities?
  • How are developers and tenants finding more space as demand for facilities continues to rise? Are we seeing more vacant buildings being converted into labs and other biotech facilities to meet the high demand?
  • With the rise in market opportunity, where is the public and private funding coming from for life science real estate?
  • I-270 Corridor Update: What are the newest projects and investments in the development pipeline? What is expected for this life science & biotech corridor in terms of tenants, investments and development in 2022? How are DC & NoVa competing against this corridor and securing their spot in the asset class?

  

How You'll Do More Business: 

With Montgomery County being one of the top markets in the life science clusters, we're beginning to see an expansion of the asset class throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. According to CBRE, the Washington DC-Baltimore area had over 11 million square feet of available lab space in 2021, and currently has over 700,000 square feet of new lab/R&D construction. What can we expect as we continue through 2022? Hear from the industry's top players at this half-day conference as they discuss the development pipeline, the newest trends and technology, the hottest neighborhoods, the retention of talent, and more.

  

Who You’ll Meet: Mid-Atlantic's top owners, developers, investors, tenants, architects, GCs and more!
