South Florida: Doing Business in the Current Economic Climate

Holland & Knight is pleased to invite you to this year's roundtable forum on the current economic climate, which includes an array of speakers featuring open discussions with cutting-edge panels. This year's event, hosted by Holland & Knight, will provide insight into the community's urban infill and urban development boundary (UDB) challenges, discuss changes in the regulatory climate for real estate and banking, and provide an overview of the new presidential administration's first 100 days and a look at what's ahead. These panels will include participation from local leaders, developers and regulators on a variety of topics, with a focus on interactive discussions aimed at answering key questions for the region.

This is a highly attended program, and you will not want to miss our panels and post-forum cocktail party. We look forward to seeing you at our Miami office.
