With Bisnow’s annual Escape and Ascent retreats just around the corner, now is the time to learn how to leverage the retreat’s myriad offerings for general partners and limited partners to do more business.

Both retreats will take place at the 1 Hotel South Beach in Miami, with Ascent on Nov. 4-6 and Escape on Nov. 6-8. While Escape facilitates connections among CEOs and industry veterans, Ascent brings together senior investment executives, operators and developers who are making their mark on the industry.

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to secure your spot at this year’s Escape and Ascent retreats and connect with CRE executives representing Blackstone, Starwood Capital, Related Cos., PGIM, Invesco, Madison Realty Capital, Blue Owl Cos., Silverstein Properties and more.

This curated experience allows operators, developers, and capital sources to meet one another. Attendees participate in off-the-record sessions exchanging ideas and best practices on how they are getting deals done and navigating the uncertainty of the market.

This year’s retreats will feature a capital markets session highlighting available debt and equity and allowing sponsors to talk about live deals, as well as a new session led by female executives to discuss challenges and opportunities on the horizon for women investors.

Speed dealmaking will seat owners and developers face-to-face with equity and debt allocators for four minutes to discuss investment criteria. Every attendee will move one seat down to speak with a new capital source each cycle.
