50th Annual Conference on Capital Markets in Real Estate 2017 | NYU School of Professional Studies | 16 November 2017 | The Pierre, 2 East 61st Street at Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10065, US

Nearly a decade after the real estate market reached its pre-crisis peak, global investors and their capital providers face persistent headwinds ranging from a volatile outlook for the world economy to political instability in historic safe havens for investment. Balancing these challenges with a thirst for yield, investors and lenders across every layer of the capital stack must also contend with changes in the ways that we finance real estate and even more fundamental shifts in how we ultimately use space.
Join us in New York City on Thursday, November 16, 2017 for the 50th Annual Conference on Capital Markets in Real Estate, where leaders of the global real estate industry will discuss how they are adapting to this uncertain world, pivoting their businesses and investment strategies to put capital to work.
