The Consultants Forum⁹ Ritz Carlton Hotel San Francisco, CA June 6 - 8, 2010

During this spring Forum, to be held at San Francisco’s most outstanding Nob Hill hotel, June 6 - 8, you will be part of an outstanding Forum that will bring in site location consulting and corporate real estate professionals who will take you inside the corporate decision-making process as the economy continues to emerge from the recession. The program promises to attract some of the most respected names shaping corporate real estate decisions in 2010.

The Consultant's Forum has built a reputation as a no-nonsense, insightful event where you’ll learn about the latest deciding factors in the site selection process from the best "minds" in site consulting, real estate, and corporate RE. We continue to build on this level of excellence as we take the Forum back to the west coast and to one of America’s leading corporate city’s and an anchor of the US economy. Attendance is limited to 100 ED professionals and we expect a early sale out.
