Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) recently set-up a Leadership Forum on Corporate Real Estate and Facility Management, to create a collaborative and participative platform that will aid in steering and leading the dialogue on key issues related to the sector and its professionals.
Forum members comprise of senior industry professionals, who are experts and leaders in their respective field and can help provide the organisation with sound business advice and bring fresh ideas, in order for RICS to be an 'advocate of change' and address key industry issues, leverage important relationships and embed standards at the very heart of the sector.
As part of this framework, 'Colliers International' will be Knowledge Partner for the key leadership forums and a large industry conference that RICS plans to organise this year in the CRE and FM sector.
These events will take place across Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru. The partnership with Colliers will aid in highlighting the importance and relevance of Corporate Real Estate in India and how it is leading the performance of the overall realty sector and contributing to economic growth.
