Advancing Real Estate Leadership
GRI Women 50/50 Global Initiative for Further Empowering Women


As a global real estate club composed of senior executives worldwide, our duty as GRI Club is to foster vital networks and knowledge sharing for our members’ growth, deal-flow and leadership.
We believe this can only be achieved with a gender-equal club, with both men and women at the table, contributing thought leadership roles at leading events and meetings, and sharing insights equally.

In collaboration with our esteemed Global Women Leading Real Estate Committee Members, we are thrilled to announce the GRI Women 50/50 Initiative.

 
For the next 12 months, we will offer a 50% reduction in membership fees for senior women 
in the real estate industry who join our Club for the first time.
* It's important to note that this initiative is specifically aimed at senior women working in companies such as developers, investors, proprietary firms, and lenders, as our club primarily focuses on Principals.
