Navigating today’s real estate private equity market requires sharp insights and strong execution, but finding both in a capital-constrained, competitive environment isn’t easy.
The Kayo Real Estate Private Equity Summit brings together women investors, dealmakers, and advisors in an intimate setting for smart capital introductions, strategic networking, and content that bridges investment and transactional perspectives. Over three days, you’ll engage in candid conversations on deal flow, market dynamics, and capital raising — all with leading women in real estate private equity who understand the challenges you face.
