The Engagement Committee works to assess membership needs, market ULI to new members and facilitate regular small-scale gatherings for new and existing members to find meaningful and engaging opportunities within ULI Northwest.
The Programs Committee curates diverse, inclusive, and highly informative events for the district council. The committee leads the organization of our annual Emerging Trends program and a selection of all-member, marquee events.
