If you work in commercial real estate, construction, architecture, or development, where do the most valuable connections happen?
Contractors, Closers & Connections brought industry leaders together for Compton Conversations, an evening designed to connect the people shaping projects across Northwest Arkansas. The evening featured a conversation with Scott Eccleston—president of campus planning and facility management at Art and Wellness Enterprises—the organization supporting operating nonprofits founded by philanthropist Alice Walton. Chris Collins of Olsson moderated. Laura Morrison, AIA, NCARB and Laura Lyon from the Childers Architect Bentonville office were there to take it all in!
Hosted in Downtown City of Bentonville at The Compton Hotel, the event gathered developers, architects, brokers, investors, contractors, and owners in one room where conversations sparked new partnerships.
