Boston has emerged as a global destination for major investment, due to the surging economy and culture of innovation located here. Despite being a smaller physical market, Boston routinely fights above its weight class. In fact, many of today's most aggressive investors put Boston in the ring with major market heavyweights like New York, Washington DC, Los Angeles and San Francisco. This national and international attention has brought Boston's real estate investment market to near record levels of pricing, with volume projected to increase over the coming years. Join NAIOP to hear from a panel of principals representing some of the most active national and global investors in today's market. They will discuss why they are investing in Boston, as well as their lookout for the future, including:
* The types of investments they are targeting
* How Boston is viewed in both national and international context
* Pricing predictions for the coming 24 months
* Possible threats to Boston's continued place as a target of capital
