Andrew Ackerman and Charlie Stephens

Dreamit UrbanTech Managing Director Andrew Ackerman joined Charlie Stephens (@charlieNYC), a real estate advisor at Cushman & Wakefield, for his “Leaders Live” series of interviews. Stephens has been involved in advising over a million square feet of tenant and landlord representation transactions within Manhattan and across the country since 2009. He has worked with clients such as Conde Nast, ING, Ernst and Young, and many more.

The two discussed a range of topics, including how Ackerman got into the world of venture capital, how to do networking in an effective way, how to raise money from venture capital investors, how Dreamit makes investment decisions, why Dreamit works with corporate partners in real estate, how a Dreamit cycle works, what trends Andrew is seeing in the real estate and construction markets, and much more.
