The user experience has become critically important to the success retail developments and office leasing strategies. Art can play a pivotal part to enhance this experience, while lending a point of view and sense of identity to the developments within which they are placed. We will continue to see the demand for property amenities increase, and the integration of public art creates a true point of differentiation among the competition, making environments more accessible and providing opportunities for positive messaging. Our panel will discuss design collaboration, how public art is making an impact in commercial real estate, and how developers are utilizing art to brand a property and celebrate a distinct point of view. Topics: • Unlocking the Hidden Value of Art as Community Messaging in Commercial Real Estate. • Building brand personality and a unique sense of place by using art to create a development’s unique identity.

Given the current conditions and uncertainty as a result of COVID-19 and keeping our members health and safety top of mind, IREM and the CCIM Institute are working together to convert the Capitol Hill Fly-in into a one-day virtual event called Advocacy Impact Day. While we’re all disappointed that we’ll not be able to meet in person, we will use this opportunity to elevate the event not only by making it more accessible than ever, but also by incorporating a more robust program. The Advocacy Impact Day offers members an opportunity to learn about the issues affecting the real estate management industry, and how to meet with their federal legislators to advocate for meaningful change. Since members will be unable to meet with their legislators in D.C., we are asking you meet with your elected officials within two weeks of our event on March 9th. Meeting with lawmakers is critical for the future health and growth of the industry, and we are making it as easy as possible to make your voice heard. Participating in the Advocacy Impact Day allows you to: Learn about the issues impacting the real estate industry, and how to help shape them Build relationships with legislators that will only increase in value over time Speak directly to the people with the power to change laws and regulations about issues that matter to you, your business, and the clients you represent Gain valuable exposure and experience Be part of something bigger than yourself IREM is excited to partner with the CCIM institute to bring this exciting event members of both organizations and amplify the voice of the real estate industry.

Industrial may not be sexy, but it is vital to our industry and often serves as a bellwether for future activity in other asset classes like office and retail. The path of development continues to spread further and further out from the Center City, the Client wish list continues to evolve, and the competition continues to grow. What we do know is that our community and the surrounding areas are HOT! Our panel will cover the booming Industrial market here in Charlotte and beyond with a panel of diverse voices including brokerage, development, site selection, and construction.
