About Our Hosted Meetings Program

Our Hosted Meetings Program for Real Estate Owners, Developers, Brokers & Occupiers is the world’s largest meetings program for the real estate industry, giving qualified decision makers up to 8 pre-scheduled, highly productive 15-minute onsite meetings. This exclusive opportunity allows you to efficiently connect with new partners, explore cutting-edge technologies, and gain valuable insights into emerging trends and business models.

All meetings are double opt-in (both parties want to meet each other) - meaning you’ll only meet with companies you’re interested in meeting. All of your decisions about who to meet will be informed with unprecedented pre-event access to detailed profiles of a broad range of participating solution providers. And, you won’t miss any CREtech keynotes or breakout sessions to attend these meetings. 

Our Hosted Meetings Program helps you with everything from fulfilling immediate needs on your roadmap to exploring disruptive solutions, all in an open and friendly environment. It's also the perfect way to expand your organization’s presence at CREtech, offering a budget-friendly way to bring more people from your team and from throughout your organization to the event.
