About ThinkTankHOA

Some of the best ideas in this industry have come from the right people being in the same room at the right time.
Think Tank HOA is built on that premise. It’s one day in Charlotte with a small group of CAM executives who are serious about where this industry is going and serious about where their businesses are headed. Expect real conversation, not a lecture. Collaboration, not a pitch. And connections that stick past the last session of the day.
However you got here, big portfolio, growing company, or just ready for something different, you belong at this table.
