Atlanta - The Future of the Energy Corridor - Bisnow Breakfast & Schmooze

With the Energy industry dominating the national and local headlines and Houston being the epicenter of many energy companies, never has there been a more important time to investigate the implications on the local economy. What are the long-term effects of the gulf spill on the Houston job market? How will absorption in the energy corridor be affected in the coming 6, 12, and 18 months? What are potential areas of growth?

Join us September 28th on site in the Energy Corridor at the spectacular, new Eldridge Oaks building, for an informative discussion about the Energy sector's real estate impact led by those most involved in the industry. We'll be sure to let you schmooze first!
