Question 5

How can my company partner with RealTimes events?

Accepted Answer

Three tiers (Strategic / Knowledge / Supporting) plus co-organized editions around specific topics, geographies, or asset classes. If you have a question worth bringing 60 to 100 senior practitioners into a room to answer, we'll build the room. Email Dominika@RealTimes.co to scope.

Question 6

Can my company host or co-organize an edition?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Beyond standard sponsorship, RealTimes co-organizes editions with strategic partners around a specific topic (e.g., distressed assets, AI in CRE), geography (a city we haven't yet entered), or asset class (logistics, BTR, hospitality). Propose your room and we'll build it. Email Dominika@RealTimes.co.

Question 7

Are events open to media coverage?

Accepted Answer

Selective. Media partnerships are arranged in advance. Some sessions are Chatham House Rule, others are on the record. Editorial coverage is coordinated with RealTimes Editorial, not the venue press desk.

Question 8

How do I get invited or join the waitlist?

Accepted Answer

RealTimes events are invitation-only for senior CRE practitioners. Subscribe via RealTimes.co for the next calendar, or request access for a specific edition by emailing Dominika@RealTimes.co with your role and company.

Question 9

What's the speaker selection process?

Accepted Answer

Speakers are practitioners who have shipped in the room they're discussing: developers behind the named towers, financiers behind the named deals, investors behind the named funds. We don't book speakers for stage time alone. If you'd like to speak or recommend a speaker, email Dominika@RealTimes.co.
