Our Commitment to Safety

We have experienced the enthusiasm of returning to live in-person events this year, having safely and successfully hosted more than 10,000 executives to date.

You can expect the following:

  • In accordance with CDC guidelines, we are recommending that all participants wear a mask, regardless of vaccination status. Masks will be made available at the door.
  • Temperature checks will be conducted at entry.
  • Attendance at the event will be capped and no tickets will be sold at the door.
  • Contact tracing procedures will be employed for any reported exposure.
  • Socially distanced seating will be available in the main event space.

Why This Matters

What You'll Learn:

  • Find out why developers and investors are prioritizing the burbs and what type of return they are getting on their investments.
  • Which development locations along the 128 corridor are in high demand and how developers are pinpointing specific development sites?
  • The beginning of 2020 accelerated the rush to the suburbs. Is there a strong construction pipeline for that to continue in 2022? If so, how will that impact the multifamily supply and demand market?
  • How are emerging markets such as Newton, Needham and Watertown becoming gateway areas in between downtown Boston and the burbs? What does this do for the city of Boston?
  • What is next for placemaking in the burbs and how is the next wave of suburban retail going to increase foot traffic?

 

How you'll do more business:

Enhance your business by understanding the role of Boston's expanding suburban footprint and how developers and investors have begun to segment areas of outside of the urban core based on asset class and demand.
