CoreNet Ohio Kentucky & CoreNet Global University Relations Initiative

University Relations & CoreNet Ohio Kentucky


CoreNet Global has made a strategic priority of strengthening its relationship with academic institutions around the world in order to grow the pipeline of talent into the challenging, rewarding – and often overlooked – career of corporate real estate. Real estate, human resources and technology typically rank among the top three expenditures of most corporations. Corporate real estate executives manage millions of dollars of assets across the globe and most stumbled into the career path by happenstance and do not hold a degree in real estate.

The CoreNet Ohio Kentucky Chapter is pleased to announce it will be working with The Ohio State University & The Fisher College of Business to promote membership, engagement, and collaborative programming.  CoreNet Ohio Kentucky offers a special membership rate for students, and we recognize that today's students are the corporate real estate industry leaders of tomorrow!  Stay tuned for more information about this collaboration!
