When?
The Inland Empire is one of the nation's most powerful economic regions. As the United States' international goods distribution center and California's fastest-growing urban area, the Inland Empire added 29,000 jobs and 100,000 residents in 2006 alone. This new empire is being built on the pursuit of gold and glory as investors and developers deliver more than 70 million square feet of retail, industrial and office space along with thousands of new residential units to meet the demands of a new higher-end marketplace.
There is no question that the growth is happening. The only question is will you have the knowledge and insight to tap the gold and earn the glory in the emerging Inland Empire?
This half-day conference, presented by the California Real Estate Journal, the Daily Journal Corp. and West Legalworks™, is designed to dissect and analyze vital elements of the evolving Inland Empire marketplace. This conference will help you assess the inherent challenges of rapid growth and identify the skill sets needed to best mine the opportunities of California's emerging empire.
