2026 State of the Market Luncheon Recap

Education,

We kicked off the year with valuable market intelligence at our 2026 CRE Market Update luncheon! Members came together to hear from leading brokers on the latest trends shaping the East Bay commercial real estate landscape.

Panelists shared timely insights across four key sectors:

  • Industrial: Bob Ferraro, CBRE
  • Office: Anthony Shell, Colliers
  • Life Science: Peter Conte, Transwestern
  • Retail: Nadine Whisnant, Maven Properties

From leasing trends and tenant behaviors to vacancy patterns and emerging opportunities, attendees walked away with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions in 2026.

A big thank you to our speakers and everyone who joined — your engagement and curiosity make these events meaningful!
