WHAT IS THE CAMPUS DEVELOPMENT SUMMIT?

The Campus Development Summit is a private, invitation-only event developed specifically for senior-level administrators who are responsible for overseeing the facilities affairs of the nation's leading colleges & universities. In today's rapidly evolving higher education marketplace, setting your institution apart from the competition has become imperative. This summit was developed with the goal of encouraging collaborative relationships between Business, Administrative & Facilities departments to create greater operational efficiencies and maximize returns on university owned assets.

The Campus Development Summit is a discussion driven event; therefore you are a participant at the summit…not just an attendee. Participation in this summit will provide senior administrators with the opportunity to discuss and debate the challenges facing their institutions in a relaxed and intimate environment that cannot be found at any other industry events. From high power keynote addresses to intimate round table discussions, our unique summit format will provide you with the essential knowledge take-away that will justify your precious time away from the office.
