Why You Won't Want To Miss This Conference:
What You'll Learn:
How Denver's medical office and outpatient market is holding near 94.5% occupancy with lease rates of $24 to $32 per square foot, and how much further landlords can realistically push rent growth before tenants push back.
Where medical office cap rates stand today — a range of roughly 5.5% to 8.5% — and what it will take for pricing to compress further as financing conditions ease through the back half of 2026.
How private capital platforms and health systems are increasingly competing, and sometimes partnering, for the same off-campus medical office and outpatient assets.
Why behavioral health infrastructure is becoming a bigger share of the development pipeline, and how design and underwriting decisions are shifting to account for it earlier in the planning process.
How medtail — clinics, urgent care and specialty wellness tenants replacing traditional storefronts — is reshaping leasing strategy in established retail corridors across the metro.
What the metro's $800 million-plus wave of hospital and outpatient capital projects signals about which submarkets are positioned to capture the next round of investment.
What labor, cost, and reimbursement pressures mean for how architects, contractors, and health systems are designing.

Investors & Capital Providers — private equity, institutional, and REIT investors targeting medical office, outpatient, and behavioral health assets
Developers & Owners — firms delivering medical office, ambulatory care, and behavioral health projects across Denver's fastest-growing submarkets
