CommercialForum Committee

The purpose of the CommercialForum is to create a community of Chicagoland commercial real estate professionals to increase the likelihood of their success through education, networking, business services, advocacy programs, research and action. Meet the current committee members below.

About Serving on the Committee:
  • Term: 1 Year
  • Meetings and Commitments: Quarterly Meetings either in-person or virtual. 90 minutes in length. Committee members are expected to attend all committee meetings, 75% of CommercialForum events, and engage with one volunteer opportunity (re: Rebuild Day, Pitch-In, or Earth Day Cleanup). Additionally, members are expected to assist with brainstorming and info-sharing on topics like educational opportunities and/or new topics for RRES courses, leads for sponsorships, topics/speakers for planned events, and recommendations for new or revised Commercial forms and contracts.
