The Multifamily Executive Conference, the premier event for developers and owners, is coming to VEA Newport Beach, Nov. 4 to 6, in Newport Beach, California. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the three-day conference provides an intimate experience for attendees with forward-looking content and exclusive networking opportunities.
Here are five reasons to attend the conference:
- Learning: The agenda focuses on strategies, trends, and data to help prepare for 2026 and beyond. Concurrent sessions will hit on some of the industry’s hottest topics, such as high-performance construction innovations, resident satisfaction, and multifamily markets benefiting from a new wave of domestic manufacturing and technology investment. On the main stage, hear from keynoter David Edelman on how personalization is the key to unlocking the growth potential of artificial intelligence. Additional general sessions will highlight the capital markets, federal housing policy shifts, and C-suite insights.
- Collaborating: From the annual women’s networking breakfast to networking lunches and receptions, there are plenty of opportunities to catch up with industry friends and expand your network of industry peers. This year, we’ve removed the exhibit hall to create more space for genuine connections and meaningful conversations throughout the event.
- Data Sharing: Zonda chief economist Ali Wolf will be back this year to provide her annual outlook on the state of the U.S. economy and housing as we inch closer to 2026. Plus, Kimberly Byrum, managing principal for multifamily at Zonda, will delve into some of the latest market trends, including the role of townhomes in the build-to-rent landscape and insights into the surge of housing for older Americans.
- Connecting: The conference is a great opportunity to be able to connect in person with our sponsors. In addition to the conference, Multifamily Executive Connections will take place Nov. 3 and 4, providing one-on-one meetings where multifamily partners can connect with supplier partners.
- Celebrating: The last day of the conference features the annual MFE Awards Ceremony, where inspiring industry leaders, developments, and programs will be honored.
