What You'll Learn

As the second-fastest growing region in the Mid-Atlantic, Richmond’s development momentum shows no signs of slowing down. From new industrial hubs and infrastructure improvements to transformative mixed-use projects, the region continues to attract residents and businesses alike. But how are developers adapting to shifting market demands across residential, commercial, and industrial spaces? Join top leaders and industry influencers as they dive into Richmond’s most impactful development projects, evolving investment strategies, new tenant activity, infrastructure opportunities, and more.

 

  • How has the new local administration influenced developers' and investors' approach to upcoming projects in Richmond?
  • As Richmond’s skyline evolves, how are urban planners and developers ensuring that infrastructure, such as transportation, utilities, and public services, keeps pace with new development?
  • What impact do large-scale industrial projects have on surrounding communities, particularly in terms of job creation, infrastructure demands, and potential disruptions?
  • What initiatives or programs are in place to address Richmond’s growing housing demand, particularly in terms of affordable and workforce housing?
  • How does Richmond differentiate itself from other Mid-Atlantic markets in terms of investment opportunities, economic growth, and livability?

 

Who’s in the Room? Last year’s attendees included Capital Square, Thalhimer, Level 2 Development, Clancy & Theys, Atlantic Union Bank, Spy Rock Real Estate, JLL, Divaris Real Estate, Greenberg Gibbons, Fannie Mae & more.
