How we verify events

Every listing comes from one place: the organizer’s own website. Not another calendar, not a press release, not last year’s dates.

What we record for each event

• Dates, city and venue, as the organizer’s event page states them. If the page gives only a month, the event is listed as “month announced” with no day. If the organizer hasn’t announced the 2027 edition, it says “dates not announced”.
• Prices, copied with their member, non-member and deadline tiers. Where prices sit behind a registration login or a page that doesn’t load without an account, the event says the prices weren’t posted publicly when we checked.
• Who attends and why go, paraphrased from how the organizer describes the event. Attendance figures appear only when the organizer publishes one, quoted as the organizer’s claim.
• The page we read and the date we read it, shown on every event page.

What we leave out

Events whose dates came only from a third-party list. In this edition that excluded, for example, NYU’s hospitality investment conference: we couldn’t load the organizer’s page, and a hotel trade site’s listing isn’t the same thing. Also left out: members-only board meetings, and events outside commercial real estate such as homebuilder shows.

How often it changes

The whole calendar was checked on October 24, 2026. Past events drop off automatically. Prices and deadlines move fastest, so always register from the organizer’s page, which every listing links to.
