  • 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.
  • Enhanced sanitization protocols will be adhered to throughout the event space including regularly disinfecting surfaces throughout the event and hand sanitizer provided to all attendees.

 

As local regulations and guidance evolve, the CRE industry continues to lead the way forward. We look forward to gathering safely to do what we do best: network, connect, and engage to do more business. We look forward to hosting you soon.

Why This Matters

What You'll Learn: 

  • How the cities along the 121 Corridor are incentivizing, development and business expansions? 
  • What’s the key to making a market “ready for investment”? 
  • What role will technology play in supporting the long-term growth of the metroplex? 
  • How is Collin County addressing challenges in education, infrastructure and affordability to ensure the 121 Corridor and surrounding areas maintain a competitive edge in the corporate relocation hunger games?
  • The term “smart city” gets thrown around a lot. What exactly does that mean and how does a city become one?

 

Who You'll Meet: This program is a must-have for office, retail, hospitality and restaurant brokers and tenants looking for the next hot spots along the 121 Corridor, not to mention, architects, general contractors and CRE professionals looking for the next deals and dollars to emerge from large tract development 

 

Why You Should Attend:

The 121 corridor has been growing steadily for years. How are developers choosing their projects along the corridor? What is the formula for a successful and lucrative project? Most importantly, what's the key to attracting investment and corporate relocations? Join us as we dive into the newest mega-developments along the 121 corridor, the growing tech presence in DFW and its impact on the city, and the pressing challenges that must be addressed to support future growth and development.
