Looking for opportunities to connect and both build relationships and share knowledge between our Forums?  IAMC hosts 6-7 events a year in major North American cities.  These half day events have provided sessions on topics ranging from Best Practices for Capex Approvals to Viewing Negotiations from Both the Tenant and Landlord Perspective. 

IAMC is always excited to add new members to our association, and we are delighted to welcome the newest among us.

What better way to kick off another year of Big 5 reports than with IAMC Chair Scott Cameron’s plans for his term. The Sonoco global real estate manager clearly sees his role as forwarding the goals of the Council’s strategic plan, and the resultant agenda is intended to move the ball closer to the finish line. 

We’ve all heard it before: With every challenge comes opportunity. Appropriately then, IAMC member Marcus Rose, real estate manager for NFI Industries in Camden, NJ, sees 2022 as a time of opportunity. Of course, challenges will remain. But as you will read in Rose’s Big Five, turning these challenges into opportunity will take patience, perseverance and planning.
