CREID's monthly meetings are built on real knowledge from real practitioners. If you have something worth sharing, we want to hear from you.
Every CREID monthly meeting features guest presentations from people doing real work in commercial real estate. Not polished pitches. Not sponsored content. Actual experience — deals analyzed, strategies tested, lessons learned in the Southwest Missouri market.
If you've closed a deal worth talking about, developed a perspective on a specific asset class, or have knowledge that would genuinely help this community make better decisions, the CREID stage is available to you.
Presentations run as part of the 6–8 PM meeting format and typically include 20–30 minutes of content followed by audience Q&A. No fee. No sales pitch required. Just substance.

There is no fee to present at CREID. Guest presenters are selected based on the relevance and quality of their proposed topic. If you're interested in presenting as part of a sponsorship package, see the Presenting Sponsor option on the Get Involved page.
Tell us your topic, your background, and what you'd bring to the CREID audience. All requests are reviewed before scheduling.
The best way to understand the CREID format is to attend one. Come to Happy Hour, stay for the meeting, and see exactly what our audience is looking for.
