  Not every project is meant to move forward. Join Urban Design Partners for a candid discussion on the realities of land development and the indicators that can signal when a project may no longer be aligned, viable, or positioned for success. From entitlement challenges and site constraints to economics, community opposition, and shifting market conditions, we’ll explore how experienced teams evaluate risk, reassess direction, and recognize when it may be time to pivot—or walk away. This interactive lunch-and-learn will bring together professionals across development, design, construction, lending, and real estate to share perspectives on navigating difficult project decisions and protecting long-term value.   Price:  Urban Design Partners is generously providing lunch and parking for you. Location: Urban Design Partner's Office     Thank You to Our Sponsor

Join us for a discussion focused on financial empowerment for women at every life stage. It will be a practical, candid conversation about the transitions women face, and the tactics that can build financial strength and independence. Admission is free, but space is limited to the first 50 CREW Charlotte members who register. Our hope is that this conversation will leave each woman with fresh perspective, practical insight, and greater confidence for whatever comes next. When women are equipped with knowledge, community, and strategy, they are better positioned not only to navigate change, but to lead through it.     Thank you to our Sponsor
