Blue Ridge Bank is excited to be a Patron Sponsor of the VCU Real Estate Trends Conference at the Greater Richmond Convention Center on Thursday, October 12, 2023. This conference attracts real estate professionals from various industry sectors, such as law, finance, construction, development, brokerage, and appraisal. It provides the opportunity to look into the future of real estate, share their expertise, and make and strengthen professional relationships and friendships. 

This year’s speakers include Heather McGowan and David Bitner. Heather is a Future-of-work strategist who helps leaders prepare their people and organizations for the post-pandemic world of work. She is a sense maker, a dot connector, a deep thinker, and a pattern matcher who sees things others miss. Heather gives people the courage and insight that illuminates their path forward. David Bitner is responsible for the strategic vision and execution of research initiatives, focusing on thought leadership that leverages the firm’s deep, data-driven market intelligence, emphasizing the capital markets space. His client-centric research approach comprises analysis of international macroeconomic trends, real estate fundamentals, and capital market dynamics to identify potential risks and opportunities for investors.
