IN A CHANGING WORLD
This is the theme for this year's full-day conference. Leading
experts will share their ideas about the evolving complexities
of today's real estate business and how the industry will
be affected by the challenges of an ever-changing economy.
Ample time is allotted for questions and answers to provide
attendees the opportunity to exchange ideas with some of the
most knowledgeable authorities on the economy, real estate,
technology and finance.
This year, we are planning sessions on
these timely and important topics:

Defy Gravity?

• Investment Opportunities: Strategies for Uncertain Times
• The Impact of Retiring Baby Boomers on Real Estate and the Economy
• REIT's: The Underlying Drivers
• Infill Building in California

current trends and critical issues in the real estate market,
and particularly in California. National and local industry
leaders will present their ideas and respond to questions
from the audience. Full lunch and refreshment breaks - included

with colleagues and presenters. Industry leaders and business
professionals - real estate entrepreneurs, brokers, financiers,
investors, attorneys, accountants, developers, and press -
contribute to make this a great educational and networking
opportunity.
