  This Year’s Topic:
  Multifamily as Market Signal: Navigating the Crossroads of Real Estate, Capital, and Community 

  Description:
  Multifamily real estate is more than an asset class—it’s a leading indicator of where commercial real estate is headed. In an uncertain market shaped by rising interest rates, evolving policies, and shifting capital flows, understanding this sector is key to navigating what’s next. 

  This year’s Berkeley Haas Real Estate & Economics Symposium, hosted in partnership with the Berkeley Real Estate Alumni Association (BREAA), brings together leading voices in real estate investment, development, and finance to explore how multifamily trends reflect broader CRE risks and opportunities.

  Attendees will gain actionable insights on market dynamics, investment strategies, and structural shifts shaping the industry’s future, while enjoying the opportunity to network with Berkeley Haas alumni, industry leaders, and peers in a cutting-edge venue designed by Hines, a global leader in real estate innovation. Heavy appetizers and an open bar (beer and wine) are included in ticket price.
