Professional Development

Emerging Leaders and Rising Stars Come Together and Work for Cuddles from Sugar!


Our Emerging Leaders and Rising Stars volunteered last month at Annenberg PetSpace. PetSpace is a unique community space featuring an interactive place for pet adoptions, an education center, and a leadership institute.


Our young professionals and mentors spent time networking, enjoyed an early dinner, and topped the evening off with a little hard work; all in hopes of the huge cuddle payoff from Sugar. Thank you to April Weber, Knight Commercial, for joining in and sponsoring dinner.


Sugar was excited to meet our volunteers as she greeted each one of them and thanked them for their hard work. This volunteer experience was a rich and rewarding way to build and strengthen the BOMA/GLA community.


Learn more about our Emerging Leaders Group and our Rising Stars and how you can be involved.

What's Happening in Advocacy

Defending LA's Real Estate Future


On September 26, the lawsuits challenging the Measure ULA Transfer tax will get their first hearing in Court. Challenges to the tax, which is already crippling the local real estate market, range from disputes over its constitutional fairness to whether or not it is even allowed as part of the City charter. These preliminary hearings will be critical in defining the future of commercial real estate in Los Angeles, and BOMA/GLA supports legal efforts to overturn them.



Donate to BOMA/GLA’s Industry Defense Fund to support our efforts to fight back against unfair transfer taxes and protect our industry from damaging policy proposals.
