NEW YORK CITY—At its first luncheon of the year, CREW New York announced that it has been selected to host the 2016 CREW National Convention. Held earlier this week in Midtown, the event's centerpiece was guest speaker Annemarie DiCola, CEO of Trepp, who shared her expertise on growing markets, the nuanced debt sector and more.
Watch for a future story on GlobeSt.com on her predictions. DiCola was the first female president of the Commercial Mortgage Securities Association and is an active member of CREW New York.
The luncheon comes on the heels of the recent historic merger of the Association for Real Estate Women and the New York City chapter of Commercial Real Estate Women Network. The two groups joined forces to create CREW New York. Both organizations were members of the CREW Network, which has nearly 9,000 members in over 70 North American markets..
Tuesday's luncheon served as an opportunity for CREW New York to set the course for 2015 and beyond. The organization will leverage exceptional speaking engagements, lively cocktail hours and peerless networking events where industry leaders will not just discuss the city's real estate landscape, but shape it.
“The recent merger has united the most formidable players in New York City real estate,” said CREW New York co-president and CREW delegate Christine Chipurnoi. “Together, we have the ability to expand one another's careers, build an unrivaled community and forge a network of the best and brightest across five boroughs.”
CREW New York's officers are co-president and CREW delegate Christine Chipurnoi; co-president Jane Lyons; president elect Theresa Garelli; treasurer Sara Rubenstein; secretary Amelia Janisz; member at large Robin Fisher and immediate past presidents Erin Bond and Laura Walker.
