Attend the Next ULI Young Leaders Group Session

ULI Atlanta is happy to invite one and all to the next Young Leaders Group Session: “The Economic Downturn and Atlanta’s Office Markets.” The panel discussion is on Thursday, January 22 from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. at the Sovereign Building downtown. This discussion is a can’t-miss opportunity for the Atlanta real estate industry as the YLG will explore the impacts of the economic downturn on Atlanta’s local office markets. Plus, complimentary cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served before and after the discussion.

The panel will discuss how new projects will weather the storm, the impacts on existing office buildings, and how tenants are affected.  In particular, we will examine the Buckhead submarket’s new supply, the impacts of its tenant base concentration in financial and real estate firms, and the potential effects Buckhead could have on other Atlanta submarkets.

Ensuring all aspects of the industry have an opportunity to voice their opinions, the panelists represent a variety of perspectives, including development, investment, leasing and brokerage. Having such disperse panel also means that you get the most reliable information as possible. The panelists are as follows:
