2025 Spring Forum

The CCIM Institute’s 2025 Spring Forum is more than just a name change—it’s a transformation. And it’s just around the corner – April 27 – May 1, 2025! This year, we’re taking networking, education, and market insights to the next level, providing commercial real estate professionals with unparalleled opportunities to grow their careers and businesses.

And what better place to do it than Miami? Known for its dynamic economy, vibrant culture, and breathtaking coastal views, Miami is the perfect backdrop for making connections that matter, gaining global market insights, and experiencing firsthand the latest trends shaping commercial real estate.

In a world where digital connections are more common than ever, face-to-face interactions remain invaluable. Deals are built on trust, expertise, and personal connections — and the best way to establish those is by meeting industry peers in person. Whether you’re looking to expand your investment portfolio, gain deeper market insights, or connect with seasoned CCIM Designees, this is the place to be.

The CCIM Institute is dedicated to preparing the next generation of commercial real estate professionals for success. The Miami District is proud to host the “Foundations for Success in Commercial Real Estate” course, a must-attend for candidates making their way to the CCIM Designation.

Nothing compares to building relationships in person, and the 2025 Spring Forum is designed to create authentic connections in a dynamic, collaborative environment. With the addition of Networking & Dealmaking Lounge sponsored by the Florida Realtors, attendees can meet and engage with CCIM Designees, candidates, and industry leaders in a relaxed setting designed to foster meaningful conversations and business relationships. CCIMs can also submit open deals to display in the Lounge throughout the event.
