What You'll Learn: 

  • Have permitting and entitlement processes become more streamlined, or are municipalities still presenting roadblocks? Is there growing municipal support for IOS developments, or do challenges remain?
  • How might current trade policies and tariffs affect supply chains, tenant demand, and overall investment in the sector?
  • A shifting capital markets environment combined with increased sophistication within this asset class is bringing many changes. What market shifts have been observed at the turn of the year? 
  • As tenant priorities shift, which amenities and site features are becoming non-negotiable for securing premium lease rates? How can landlords stay ahead of evolving operational needs?
  • As institutional capital continues to flow into IOS, how can developers and owners position their portfolio to uncover high-potential deals?
  • With massive funds being raised and growing investor interest, how can stakeholders maintain momentum, capitalize on market trends, and stand out in an increasingly crowded space?
  • IOS is known for its low-maintenance nature, but what operational standards and service levels do tenants expect from property owners and operators?
  • As IOS continues to mature, what challenges lie ahead regarding site complexity, financing availability, and competition from institutional investors?
