About the event
Join WIRED for one of our most exciting panels yet as we bring together some of Kansas City’s leading voices in restaurant, retail, hospitality, and commercial real estate for an honest conversation about the future of placemaking and experience-driven development.
From lease structures and market rents to patios, walkability, hospitality trends, and what makes a project truly successful, this discussion will explore how restaurants and entertainment concepts shape the places where people gather, connect, and spend time.
The panel will feature developers, brokers, restauranteurs, operators, and hospitality experts discussing:
The current restaurant and retail leasing market
Challenges operators are facing today
What landlords and developers are looking for
