Executive Small-Scale Development Program

Join other entrepreneurial developers who are focused on infill and smaller-scale projects for this exclusive ULI members only program. Through the ULI Executive Small Scale Development Program, you will have the opportunity to connect with peers in the industry from across the country. In addition to the in-person program, you will become part of a growing network of professionals sharing their experiences beyond the classroom in online venues and networking events at the ULI Fall Meeting.

The result is an intimate alliance of professionals engaged in an ongoing exchange of best practices in the niche area of small-scale and infill development. You will hear new ideas while you candidly discuss solutions to your or your peers’ projects.

Apply today to be a part of it!

The Executive Program series will offer two courses each year. Participants in any of the current or past programs will be invited to a private networking event at the 2013 ULI Fall Meeting.

Program Goals and Guiding Principles

In addition to being devoted exclusively to smaller-scale developers, the Executive Program series is designed to be unique in its content, delivery, and outcomes.

The Goal of Each Program is:

  • Collegial: Participants will share problems, ideas, and solutions with people who are their professional peers and facing the same issues, joining an exclusive alliance of business peers. The program begins with registration as
    participants join an online community where they can begin to exchange questions and ideas.
  • Instructive: Experienced, senior-level ULI members and other professionals will present practical, experience-based operational best practices, as well as personal lessons learned in an intimate, interactive setting. Through both direct instruction and panel discussions, participants will learn strategies to take their company to the next level and enhance their own personal career fulfillment.
  • Collaborative: Participants will work together with their peers. They will draw on each other’s experience and build new relationships that will provide ideas for finding solutions to the business problems they face right now and will face long after the program ends.

Here's what recent attendees are saying

“The Executive Small Scale Development Program is an important resource for connecting with other developers facing challenges specific to small to medium scale projects.  As a partner in a small development company interested in scaling our operations I look forward to learning how other developers have overcome the hurdles that start-up development companies face.”

Marja Preston President, Asani, Bainbridge Island, WA

 

“The program was informative and energizing, especially meeting attendees who share a passion for small-scale infill development.  The program’s most interesting sessions were on non-institutional capital and ‘deal sharing’, basically attendees outlining deals they are contemplating and others poking holes and offering advice.  I look forward to the next in the series, to see how it builds on the previous topics and grows the community of small-scale developers.”

Andrew Frey, Development Manager at CC Residential and Executive Director of Townhouse Center, Coral Gables, FL

 

“I found the Small Scale Entrepreneurship Program in SF to be a great way to share best practices and to build a network of like-minded entrepreneurial developers who are working on creative ways to be successful in today’s challenging real estate investment and development environment.”

Patrick Molloy, President, Gavden Investments El Dorado Hills, CA
