Chapter Committees
NAIOP has established a committee structure for its members to actively participate in the objectives of the commercial real estate industry. NAIOP has refined the goals and objectives for our committees and would like each NAIOP member to consider the value of getting involved in one or more of them. Committee participation is a great way to develop working relationships with other commercial real estate professionals while having a positive impact on our industry and the community as a whole.
