A sold-out crowd celebrated the launch of the 2023 edition of People & Projects to Know (PTK) in Commercial Real Estate.
The presenting sponsor and host was Irgens. The dessert sponsor was Bell Bank. The promotional sponsor was Rosendin. The PTK launch party was held at 999 Playa del Norte in Tempe and guests got to tour the one-of-a-kind, 6-story, Class A office building just off the high-traffic Loop 202.
