ULI Washington Future Forum: Shaping a Future of Abundance

The Forum will bring together leaders from business, government, and nonprofit sectors to confront the region’s most urgent housing and economic challenges. Through thought-provoking dialogue, cross-sector collaboration, and bold ideas, we’ll explore whether today’s economic volatility, political uncertainty, and social tension are temporary disruptions—or signs of a deeper structural shift threatening our region’s long-term prosperity.

Together, we’ll work to get “unstuck,” chart a clear path forward, and develop actionable strategies for a future defined by shared opportunity, resilience, and abundance.

  • Keynote Spotlight: Yoni Appelbaum, Jerusalem Demsas
    Moderated by Ken Biberaj
