We are attending a key industry event in Los Angeles, the Southern California Hospitality & Retail Commercial Real Estate Summit, powered by Bisnow. This summit brings together developers, investors, operators, and designers shaping the future of hospitality, retail, and mixed-use environments across Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, and surrounding cities.

Southern California remains one of the regions where we provide strong BIM project support. Staying close to market evolution allows us to better align our services with real project challenges and opportunities.

Why We're Attending 

We’re attending to gain insights into:

  • Latest data on hotel occupancy, tourism recovery, and investment trends.
  • Where new hotel, retail, entertainment, and mixed-use projects are emerging.
  • How adaptive reuse and experiential design are reshaping aging assets.
  • What investors prioritize today: lifestyle brands, community focus, sustainability, and technology.

Understanding these trends strengthens how we support architecture and development teams through BIM Coordination, ensuring documentation standards, workflow alignment, and efficient project delivery in complex commercial environments.

Meet our team

Jeff Bymaster , Chief Business Development Officer ,will be on site representing Blend. His focus: strengthening our network, identifying new opportunities, and connecting with leaders driving Southern California’s hospitality and retail growth.
