The Steers Center welcomed over 120 attendees, including MIT’s Real Estate Center and their students, for a day-long conference showcasing the strengths of both academic programs, bringing together alumni and faculty for candid conversations on today’s most pressing topics: the status of American power, the global data center race, office-to-residential conversions, and the role of AI in reshaping our industry. Held at the McCourt School of Public Policy on Georgetown’s Capitol Campus, the two real estate programs collaborated to bring together five distinct panelists who showcased not only the thought leadership of both programs but also our incredible alumni network, which helped us put on this event.

A networking reception was held after the event for all attendees and gave students from both programs a chance to connect and build new relationships.
