Our special and signature events are among the most eagerly anticipated and well attended events in the industry.
Annual Meeting & Real Estate Forecast (late January): Always the first "must event" of each year and an outstanding networking event. Features the election of officers and trustees, and an expert look at the forces that will
shape the office, industrial, retail and residential markets in the coming
year.
Public Policy Symposium (March): This members-only program features the Governor, legislative leaders, and/or cabinet members. The discussion is always provocative and often surprisingly candid. There is always time for questions from the audience.
Commercial Real Estate Awards Gala (May): The
“must-attend” event of the year for networking and making deals. A memorable evening of celebration, fellowship and tribute to outstanding industry leaders. Read more about the Gala.
Golf Outing (September): Always held at one of New Jersey’s finest
courses and always an early sell out. Featuring 18 holes of championship golf, a golf clinic for novices, networking, great food, prizes and an exciting live auction. Read more about the Golf Outing.
Community Action Project (spring or fall): Each year, we host a volunteer day that involves anything from building or
refurbishing a neglected park or playground in one of New Jersey’s older urban
communities to cleaning up litter with elementary students. All funds, materials and
labor are donated by NAIOP New Jersey members and industry friends. Read more about the Community Action Project.
President's Awards (November): Each year, NAIOP New Jersey recognizes
all members who serve on committees, and one member from each committee who has
gone “above and beyond” in service to the association is honored with the
President’s Award. Read more about the President's Awards.
Special Tours: NAIOP New Jersey members have traveled by boat, bus, light rail and foot to tour everything from the Port of Elizabeth to the new Giants/Jets stadium. Read more about Tours.
