What is Partnership Forum?

The Partnership Forum is a unique mentorship program that brings a small group of YLG members together with senior ULI members from the Triangle District. Groups engage in active dialogue with industry leaders around current real estate topics and develop strong relationships through the sharing of experiences with a diverse group of peer industry professionals. This program is intended to foster an exchange of professional ideas, friendship, and expertise among young real estate professionals and industry veterans. It is essential that every member be committed to the ULI Triangle YLG Partnership Forum in order to create the type of atmosphere necessary for success. Members who place a high priority on the ULI Triangle YLG Partnership Forum arrive on time, are fully attentive and respectful of other members, participate with vigor, stay until the conclusion of the meeting, and arrange their busy calendars with the ULI Triangle YLG Partnership Forum in mind.
