Taking on the Costs of Building Homes
Invitation only. With a current national deficit of 6.8 million housing units, excessive costs of building homes for sale only exacerbate the nation's underproduction of housing for first time homebuyers. Experts break down cost drivers of homebuilding and explore long term solutions and innovations to making home production more efficient and affordable for America's workforce.

Re-designing Cities: From Land Use to Transportation
Invitation only. Over the next 20 years, Latinos are predicted to account for 70% of new homeowners. However, existing zoning restrictions pose one of the biggest threats to that projection. With a limited supply of land and a rising cost of home production, this panel of experts will explore how condos, townhomes, smaller homes and an effective transportation system will be critical to tomorrow's success.
