Event Details

The Real Estate Committee is collaborating with the Banking and Law committee to host an event focused on lease negotiations and renegotiations.

Right now one of the biggest factors of small businesses going out of business is rent in arrears.

There are many creative ways to restructure and stay in business. Many small business owners have no idea how to even begin and just shut down when looking at their invoices.

Please join our experienced professionals where we break down different types of lease negotiations that can potentially save businesses and jobs.
