Where is YOUR Opportunity in Opportunity Zones?

Attorney Phil Colton is a featured panelist at “Where is YOUR Opportunity in Opportunity Zones?,” a Minnesota Shopping Center Association event on March 6, 2019. The event will discuss the what, why, how and overall objectives and opportunities of the Opportunity Zone/Fund Program. With 100+ newly designated Opportunity Zones in Minnesota alone, we are just beginning to see its impacts on our market, as well as nationally.

They will educate and share examples of how Opportunity Zones, on their own as well as in conjunction with other programs, will positively affect the retail real estate industry and all of our company classifications in the future.

Presentation content will include information such as:
