- With Class-A leasing activity picking up and new leasing trends emerging across Manhattan and the boroughs, attendees will gain a nuanced view of where demand is.
- Analyze how occupier behavior is shifting. From corporate tenants, tech companies, law firms, and financial services, get the latest on office space needs, workspace design and lease terms.
- Navigate financing and capital challenges: The event will address maturing loans, distressed office situations, and creative financing approaches.
- Identify strategic repositioning opportunities, understanding where repositioning, amenitization or adaptive reuse makes sense for under-performing assets.
- Learn how technology and workplace trends shape demand to make office environments are becoming more experience-driven.
- Discussions around amenity packages, workplace tech and tenant preferences will help owners and developers refine capital plans that actually drive leasing results.
