We were happy to host the Business Development Board’s Commercial Real Estate Roundtable at 1100 Northpoint Parkway in West Palm Beach – offering 20,000–40,000 SF of modern office space for lease with lake views, ample parking, and unbeatable connectivity.
Speakers included Palm Beach County Mayor Maria Marino, BDB President & CEO Kelly Smallridge, Derek Baker of Colliers, and Christopher Thomson of Cushman & Wakefield. Together, these dynamic leaders explored how partnerships, innovation, and infrastructure are shaping the future of Palm Beach County.
Key Takeaways
Partnerships Build Community
Mayor Marino emphasized the importance of collaboration among cities, transit agencies, and businesses to guide the county’s rapid growth.
Smarter, Safer Mobility
The Countywide Transportation Master Plan (CTMP) will serve as a roadmap for improving how residents and workers move through the county, including smart traffic lights, first-mile/last-mile solutions, and rebranding efforts for Tri-Rail and Palm Tran.
Funding the Future
Leaders discussed a proposed transportation surtax to support transit operations and the need to include electric vehicles in future funding models.
Innovation & Industry Growth
Light industrial, healthcare, and data center sectors are booming – a $1 billion build-to-suit data center price tag underscores Palm Beach County’s growing appeal to innovative industries.
Investing in Talent
The BDB is expanding its Talent Optimization initiatives and promoting local internship and workforce programs to help connect skilled workers with area employers.
