We were there at Apartmentalize in Denver, Colorado and it was the best event of the year. The number of exhibitors and attendees was almost overwhelming but it made it so interesting. Post-pandemic, the apartment management industry might even grow further.
These industry conventions are an amazing experience to mix with dynamic and progressive professionals who are there for a reason — to manage their properties well.
Informative, Engaging Speaker Sessions
Besides the amazing exhibitors and software technology you’re going to see, there are also speaker sessions, discussions and other sessions where landlords, property investors and apartment managers can get up to date on issues, trends, news, and skills.
Some of the leading professionals in our industry will be attending and speaking. This is a golden chance to grow your knowledge and meet the top people in apartment management.
These topical discussion sessions will take place Tuesday August 30th to Wednesday September 1st, which are dubbed success courses with topic tracks such as executive level and leadership topics, maintenance, operations, marketing, industry insight and more.
