California State of the Market

Virtual

2024: A Year of Stabilization and Reset. California’s economic performance has lagged national performance for the last few years – technology sector layoffs, regional banking crises, and the exodus of a significant portion of the workforce to other states have taken its toll. However, home sales are tentatively rebounding and the population grew in 2023, halting three years of decline. As California continues its path to economic recovery, this session takes a closer look at trends in construction and development, real estate supply and demand signals, emerging trends, and demographic shifts amidst volatility. We will also discuss what the future holds for different market sectors across the state.

Succession Planning and Leadership Transition: Securing Your Architecture Firm’s Future

Virtual

For many architecture firms, the business is not just a career, but a lifestyle. However, when the time comes to retire or slow down, the most important investment you can rely on might not be your 401(k), IRA, or real estate portfolio—but your firm. Succession planning is not just about ensuring your practice can continue without you; it’s about building a valuable asset that can provide significant financial security and wealth, potentially making your firm your most significant retirement asset. Join us for an essential webinar on the best practices for succession planning and leadership transition. This session, designed specifically for firm owners who may not have considered the long-term financial benefits of planning ahead, will be led by an industry expert, who successfully sold his 17-person firm in 2007. Steve Burns, FAIA will show you how to strategically grow your firm’s value, preparing it for a successful transition that can offer you the financial freedom to step back when you are ready. We’ll cover the critical steps for ownership transition, from strategic and financial planning to cultivating leadership within your team. By empowering the next generation and creating a strong, sustainable firm, you’ll be setting yourself up for a future where your hard work pays off in more ways than one.
