Nebraska Governor (Invited)
Jim Winter
10th Anniversary Chair

The Fall 2012 Professional Forum, in Omaha, marks IAMC's ten-year anniversary! Plans are underway to celebrate this major milestone in a way that will be long remembered. New and different networking opportunities and high-quality programming will revolve around the theme, The Perfect Ten - Building on the Past; Creating our Future. An impressive line-up of opening session presenters will set the tone for this landmark forum.

Opening session keynoter Erik Weihenmayer (pictured right) will deliver a provocative message that draws from his book, The Adversity Advantage. The objective of all key sessions and workshops is to help corporate real estate, economic development and service providers draw from current strategic approaches and prepare to meet the challenges of the coming decade.

Key topics to be addressed at the Omaha Forum include:

  • Globalization
  • Technology
  • Transportation
  • Changing roles of CRE/Industrial Asset Managers
  • Demonstrating Value and Increasing Relevance to the C-Suite
Join us in Omaha to celebrate, network and discuss strategies for adding greater value!
Welcome
Mert Livingstone

I cordially invite you to attend IAMC's 10th Anniversary Celebration to be held over the course of the Fall 2012 Forum in Omaha, Nebraska. The Forum, taking place October 13 - 17, will be hosted at the Hilton Omaha and will take us to some of Omaha's most exciting venues.

"A Perfect Ten" has been a key phrase as we have planned for this Forum and celebration, marking both pride in our first 10 years and anticipation of the next 10. In honor of the occasion, we are planning amazing networking events and keynote speakers. We will revisit some "bests" of the first 10 years and experience some of what will surely become "bests" of the next 10. More details will be announced as they are available, but suffice it to say, you will not want to miss IAMC in the fall.

Between now and the Fall Forum, I encourage you to stay in touch with IAMC and our fellow members by connecting with the "IAMC Group" on LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook. Additionally, I invite you to visit our Web site (www.IAMC.org) and check back often as it is continually updated with information about the Forums, the association, and special 10th Anniversary initiatives.

I hope to see you this October in Omaha for a Forum and a celebration 10 years in the making!

Kind regards,


Mert Livingstone
IAMC Chair
