The Roundtable will be held on Aug. 12 at Hilton Nashville Downtown.
Allen founded the Roundtable 11 years ago and organized meet-ups annually in alternating locations. The event provides networking, discussion of important industry topics, and the opportunity to make deals.
Networking Roundtable attendance is limited, so register today to secure your place.
The Roundtable attracts many of the most engaged and knowledgeable leaders in the business, from community management, to finance, retail, manufacturing, and services. Each year provides a schedule of panels and speakers covering industry trends and topics, as well as an opportunity for each attendee to introduce themselves and their company to the attendees.
Scott Roberts is an industry veteran who runs a generational business from Austin, Texas. The organization’s properties are award-winning communities that meet a wide range of resident needs.
Roberts will talk about his company’s development of raw land into land-lease communities in several regions of the U.S., noting the uptick of activity in new development in general. For the first time since the mid-90s, Roberts said, a significant amount of new land is being developed for factory-built affordable housing.
The venue for the final Networking Roundtable is positioned in the middle of Nashville’s historic Music Row. The event will have a limited amount of exhibit and sponsorship positions. The single day of programming will include a state of the industry address by Allen, the Roundtable keynote address, a cocktail mixer, a celebratory dinner, and a special presentation to cap the evening.
