We’re proud of what we accomplished in 2021 and have ambitious goals for 2022, all of which you can read more about in the brochures linked below.

Some of highlights of next year’s plans:

Emerging Trends

Since members’ time is precious, we’ll focus on fewer, larger events that ensure quality content and networking and maximize value for members and sponsors. Members will connect in smaller groups through breakout sessions, roundtables, tour groups, affinity groups, etc. The total investment needed for events is $50,000.

We’ll continue our Real Estate Diversity Initiative (REDI) with its annual investment of $35,000.

We’d like to fully fund UrbanPlan—currently supported by sustaining sponsors—and expand its use for community workshops in Central Indiana. The workshops help citizens and planners better understand the dynamics of the development process, expand their vocabulary to discuss proposals, and develop more empathy for development challenges. The total UrbanPlan investment need – university work, two community workshops, and annual training – is $35,000.  

Our biggest project is the 3rd Equitable Development Summit, presented by the Women’s Leadership Initiative (July 27-29). This conference attracts ULI members from over 20 states, and we’re excited to welcome them to Indy. The investment need for the conference is $100,000. If we excel at execution and fundraising, this could position Indy for a larger ULI conference.

Changes we have made to the brochure:

  • More meaningful names for our various investment levels.
  • We are not offering new 3-year agreements. Returning 3-year sponsors will pay their original amount until their term expires, or unless they wish to change investment types or levels.
  • We’re offering sponsors the opportunity to participate in program leadership. Local leaders help shape the future of Indiana’s built environment through the programs they design and implement. Along the way they grow their leadership skills and make valuable connections for personal and business development.

We’re hoping to secure all investment commitments by 12/31/21, with payments beginning in either 2021 or ‘22 (your choice) and installments available. Please get in touch at your earliest convenience, as most investment opportunities are limited.
