Surveying the Landscape, One Year Later

NEW YORK CITY-A year after the Wall Street meltdown, industry experts will illuminate challenges and opportunities at the eighth annual RealShare New York.

By Paul Bubny | Updated on October 26, 2009

NEW YORK CITY-When RealShare Conferences presented its seventh annual RealShare New York conference last October, the dust had not yet settled from the near-collapse of the capital markets and the near- or total collapse of financial giants such as AIG, Lehman Brothers and Washington Mutual. Today, the landscape that industry members survey is more clearly mapped but no smoother, and the future is filled with question marks about when commercial fundamentals will recover, how deals can get done and when a steady flow of distressed opportunities will actually come to market.

Helping to shed light on these and other questions will be a cross-section of experts convened for the eighth edition of RealShare New York, scheduled for 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday at the Roosevelt Hotel. Colleen McShane, group conference manager for the RealShare series of events, tells GlobeSt.com that more than 300 registrants are expected to attend.

Following a networking breakfast that begins at 7 a.m. and opening remarks by Michael Desiato, vice president of ALM’s Real Estate Media Group, the conference kicks off at 8 with a Power Panel titled “Local Legends Share Their Secrets.” Moderated by Anthony Malkin, president of Malkin Properties, it will feature Lawrence Benenson, EVP of Benenson Capital Partners; Jerry Cohen, principal with Tishman Speyer Properties; Stephen L. Green, founder and chairman of S.L. Green Realty Corp., Stephen Siegel, chairman of global brokerage at CB Richard Ellis; and Julien Studley, chairman and CEO of Studley New Vista Associates. While listening to these veterans swap war stories would make for an entertaining 50 minutes, the panel will instead focus on topics pertinent to today’s market.
