State and Local Leadership Forum on Global Business

This year’s theme is Leveraging Community Relationships to Expand Your Global Business. The forum will explore an oftenunderutilized segment of the global real estate industry, your existing community partners.

Industry leaders and highly involved community partners share how you can identify, build upon and ultimately prosper from these valuable relationships.
